Words

They just come to me
The light at the end of my tunnel
Guiding me towards some absolution 
Why have they chosen me for this
They constantly fill my mind
Giving me a taste of life
Freedom, courage, and hope
They cleanse my soul
Redeeming me daily
For I'm reminded always 
There's no greater gift than love
However they still show me evil
Degradation and truth of the world
They do not discriminate
Nor play favorites
They are simple and twisted 
I have faith in what they bring me
So I can pass them along to you
