Step outside to freedom

A small chance to take

Loose your hold on comfort

You will find the gold

Courage not forsaken

Only time will tell

Privilege awaits you

When you step outside your

Zone.

Icy winds rattled glass windows

Dogs howled misery at the relentless moon

My eyes grew heavy until eventually there

Was nothing left bar a tiny seed, very tiny send of

Hope

I chose my path and here I am

I chose each step I took

I shook my world right from its core

My days are now unseen

Where to now I do not know

But trust in faith I will

By faith we live each day

Surrounded by our hoping hearts

We trust that all would go our way

That dreams would light the dimming stars

Before we have a chance to blink

We fall and falter at the realm

My legs give way I feel so weak

I hope that you will understand

I give it all I tried my best

It was returned at their behest

My very all would never be enough

And so I turn myself away

There’s nothing more I have

To say.

I felt that pain so deeply

A sear within my chest

I cried out for drops of water

The sun though lapped it all

Oh please can someone help me

Oh please don’t let me die!

But down the hole I falter

I lose the sight of sky

I’m surrounded by my demons

My head falls into hands

And so I wish for blindness

To unsee all the pain

Oh heal my heart I pray

Let the sun shine once again
