Where the Broken Go

Seek Me, I Am Hope

Amidst the tiny, tattered tear drops,

crashing endlessly to the floor...

Behind the shouting that never stops,

there is an open door.

Beyond that door lies a journey,

a path to lead you home.

Be wise the jesters and fools you'll see,

could leave you cold and alone.

Tiny child who sobs in the night,

I beg of you, look for me...

For beyond the darkness there is light,

and a world of opportunity.

Throw down the mask you wear to hide this fate,

and paint yourself a brighter destiny.

Destroy the puppeteer strings and escape,

free yourself from insecurity.

You are a glowing flame,

flickering in a storm of wind and hail...

Cleanse your mind of any blame,

and push forward no matter how often you fail.

For you hold the key,

that will unlock the future of all of your dreams.

I beg of you, look for me...

when darkness again seeps through the seams.

For I will be the light inside,

giving you the strength to cope.

Take this life and its misery in stride,

seek me, I am hope.

It is my will to guide you,

as far as your dreams are vast...

Beyond any breakdown and upon any breakthrough,

from your first day, until your very last.
