Reaching Out For Righteousness...

Reaching out for Righteousness…
                                  Reaching out for Salvation…
Please Save us from Ourselves…
                                  Save us from anymore Despair…
Save us from the Devastation…
                                    Even the Devastations we create…
And Hiding from Each other…
                                Hiding from even Ourselves…        
Where is the end?                                            When do we stop?
The Time has come to choose a Different Path…
Isn’t it time?                                 We start anew?
Please remember the Sadness we live…
Can’t we start over?                                           Begin again?
Learn another way…                
                                   Dream of what could be…
             Of what is Real and True…
For we never know what tomorrow my bring…
                                                                     It may never even come

You write the truth, Heather. We don't know what the future holds, but we must continue "Reaching out for Righteousness...Salvation." Very inspiring poem! Love, Carolyn
