Words I Cannot Speak

Sanctuary

For those who do not have a home to call their own, a sanctuary.

I cannot always give you shelter and more, but.

If I could give you a home,

I would.

If I could give you a town,

I would.

If I could give you a city,

I would.

If I could give you land,

I would.

If I could give you a country,

I would.

My own trials and hardships I go through may not let me always help you.

My own experiences may not be like yours.

But I hope with these words I share you'll keep on living.

This world is imperfect,

This beautiful and ugly world,

This paradise of light and shadow.

I wish for you not to always see the shadows,

To live in the darkness.

So I hope in the future you will have a home to call your own,

A sanctuary.

If I could give you a sanctuary,

I would.
