HAND IN THE DARK
by
Enter a world, foreign untrue
One single mind Now becomes two
Innocent mind, learn to perform
Once knowing soul learn to conform
Innocent soul learn to compete
Following rules, soul incomplete
Curious soul, question the norm
Hearing no answer, enter a storm
World is unsafe, life is a quest
Harden your soul, this is your test
Curious soul, now asking why
Dark winter clouds, hear no reply
Become an adult, society cheers
Crying for help, nobody hears
Enter mid-life, critical choice
Stop for a moment, remember the voice
Hearing a truth, risking it all
Fall to the ground, unable to crawl
Unable to help, fearing the sight
Friends disappear, departing polite
Calling for help, wanting to die
Souls are afraid, fearing my cry
Internal voice, soul remains still
Painful to think, losing self will
Surrender it all, no sign of light
Painfully enter darkness of night
Alone in the dark, shelter obscure
Internal voice growing more clear
Accepting the fate, feeling a hand
Holding on tight, beginning to stand
Take a few steps, learning to walk
New foreign tongue beginning to talk
Soul in the dark able to see
Walk a new path, authentic and free
Hearing acute, compassionate heart
Want to assist, soul must depart
Purpose now clear, passion today
Mission of soul, refreshing new day
Souls in the dark, seeking to find
Extending a hand, one single mind
