path of hope

I see pain and rejection
I see fear and loneliness
Is there anyone hearing
These were my thoughts
I couldn’t trust the “many”
The voices who claim to know
The answers to my trouble
I began to search
Believing I could find out
Which direction I could take
To keep from repeating
What was given me
I decided honesty
With myself and those with me
Is the only way to find
A path I could trust
There’s something about
Just making a decision
Not to repeat history
This decision worked
Set me on a path of hope
Believing that I could think
It makes life interesting
When you find the fire in you
That is larger than your pain
Looking for what is real
