I need you, Hope

By Jaxson Kolstad

I have been walking for years,

Trying to find the missing piece,

When will I find it? 

How long will this take,

I’m tired of living the same day,

Over and over and over again,

The fog in my eyes is taking over,

Why can’t I see any more? 

Why can’t I see the things I need? 

When will I be saved? 

Saved from this horror,

Time is as still as can be,

I hope my days are filled with love,

I want my heart to heal,

I think I need hope here,

When will they save me?

Hope … 

Hope I’m ready to be saved,

Saved from this hell,

Please my heart is pleading, 

I’ll promise I’ll get better, 

I just want to feel again.
