Hope

Like the beautiful butterflies
Buzzing freely in gay abandon
I seek that ability
I seek that purity

My mind restricts
Often constricts
Often wanders
In unwanted places

You touched my heart
So strong, so pure
Towards Earthly things
I am pulled

I feel stretched
I feel conflict
But for the first time now
I had clarity

Wandered through space
For thousands of years
Searching for the purpose
Searching for truth

It appeared out of nowhere
Suddenly one day
Guiding and pointing
To permanent hope

Yet I am pulled
So strong so clear
Earthly things, attachments
Wonders of the world

I try and fight hard
I fight strong
Just need a little help
To keep going on

Let's go on our journeys
Separate they are
Knowing and supporting
Through the storm

The promised land is within
That's loud and clear
The journey so tough
Yet well within reach
