Stepping Stones
If I am to hear your message
As an echo in my mind
I shall hear the words of love
I will feel the laughter of our memories
And with me I shall carry them
Throughout eternity they will remain
For my heart is filled with you
Your words will be a beacon
Guiding me through the darkness
Bestowing upon me the light to find myself
Giving me the courage to trudge forward
My head held high and my soul protected
I will hear you whisper, “All is not lost”
I will know that life is to be lived
As I search my soul for the path
The road that is to be my destiny
The one that will lead me back to you
Strength, hope, and peace will find me
I will find that your words still live within me
For they are not mere words in my memory
But stepping stones on the path to happiness
