The Way

by The DaveJon   Feb 4, 2007


Here I stand
On the hill
Surveying the land
Behind me
Rolling hills of green
Where my feet have tread
Mountains standing tall
Where I have kissed the sky
Times of joy
Times of enjoyment
Times of love
And the other times
Where I have walked
Through the valley of thorns
Forced there by the throws of love
The crossing
Of the river of blood
Where I willing shed some of mine
The times of fear
The times of sadness
The times of pain
The times that I have come
And conquered
The times of losing those close
The times of gaining new friends
Those times lay behind me
And here I stand
On a hill
Surveying the land
Seeing what lies before me
A land of darkness
A land of pain
A land of hardship
But a land of hope
For in front of me
The way is lit
By five burning stars
To guide my way
To heal the wounds
To stop the blood
To heal the bruises
The five are there
Watching over me
Protecting me
Someone that doesn't deserve
This attention
This care
This love
That the five show
The warmth they give out
The fire that burns inside them
The love
The devotion of the five
Now
I am alone on this lofty perch
Wishing and waiting for the day
That I will have someone
So here I stand
On a hill
Surveying the land
The soul
Of a broken man
