I know that God created me But I don’t know why I’m here Or why my prayers end up on the list Of the ones he didn’t hear Given up on trying to rescue The bridges I have burned And trying to change the words I wrote On the pages I have turned By accepting what I cannot change And by changing what I can I’m at peace with where life takes me And content with who I am Until I shape my destiny Life will choose my fate And if Lady Luck is out there She’s either lost or very late I still dread each tomorrow But each today I now hold dear Death’s a monster I still hide from But one that I no longer fear So every day I climb that mountain And every day I slip and fall Even though my faith runs deeper Than the mountain rises tall Until now I’ve never wondered Until now I’ve never cared Until now I didn’t matter Until now I wasn’t scared Will they find my footprints at the top, And know I’ve seen the other side?... Or my bones here at the bottom, And think I never even tried? © 2007 Gerry E. Heber, All Rights Reserved When we are unable to find tranquility within ourselves, it is useless to seek it elsewhere. |
