Hand In Hand With You

Hurrying down a winding path
Among imposing lofty trunks, I
Nourish thoughts with optimism 	
Discarding an assault by aching limbs       

Imploring for a soothing stop
Notwithstanding valid motivation. 

Hark! I catch cascading sounds
Approaching from not far away.
Nobody knows how big a boost this brings!
Doubts will not disturb my mind again. 

With you this mission I’ll accomplish soon; 
Important to withhold mistrust at bay.
Towards conclusion, with firm motivation,
Hoping to attain our initial aspiration.

You hold my hand, without any qualms 
Of what tomorrow and days afar might spawn. 
Uplifting is this vast profusion of our faith.
