TRUTH

One day I gathered all my strength
I said; I'm going to give this one more try
I'll do whatever I must do
Today is; Do or die
I was desperate to find some answers
Before the flame of hope blew out
What is the purpose of going on
What's the meaning of life all about?
I couldn't see beyond the sorrow
Beyond the torment of the past
I survived, but I wasn't living
My years of living were fleeing fast
I wanted to know of contentment
I wanted to feel something other than pain
Enjoy the beauty of what surrounds me
See the rainbow after the rain
The answers I'd long been searching for
Through all the tears I cried
To my astonishing amazement
They were buried deep inside
The truth and inner courage
Fought their way back through the light
I saw my true authentic self
When truth gave me back my sight
