An Unknown Parallel

What does life look like when the things we continue to choose…
Are the same things in life that support all of ways that we’d lose.

A comfort zone found in being great at throwing away…
A person that could give back to the world every night and day.

Confused on why doing right still brings struggle within…
A person that has put up a fight for others but never known how to personally win.

I have dropped the worry and efforts to disappear long ago…
No judgement made holds ground and you can save the show.

I am here to tell you that hope is not driven from comfort or ease…
It comes from the deepest part of your being finding ways to fail and cease.

Truth is born through battles fought, each and every scar…
An understanding in never going backwards because your darkness is never to far.

Success is driven by hope in new ways to stay clear of old-time fear…
It is staying as far ahead as needed to keep this new life sure and clear.

Find whatever is needed to hold on tight…
Hope driven by the heart has no worry or fright.

Instead, it’s got reasons to find that next deep breath…
It gives you everything needed to live opposite of that once welcomed death.

Reach your arms out as far as they can possibly go…
There is no guessing here when your heart leads…. I promise you’ll know

Every step is a win…
Live in the now and not in the back then…
An advancement to where you are headed not where you have been.
