Reflection A mirror held upon a life As the minutes turn to hours Hours blurring into days Attention To all the things left undone To the words we were too afraid to say As each passing second slips away Let it rain Wash away the poison The stains of past misdeeds subside Let the water bring life In a world of second chances No surrender to the plague inside Asking just to start anew Contemplating irony A body fed with venom Seeking life from death Searching Searching for the meaning Can the lessons learned unburden the struggle For one fortunate enough to have the chance Fortunate enough to start again The road unfolds before us all But where it leads no one can see So walk without regret and without fear But never lose your empathy I'm seeing what I can only hope Is light ahead I'm standing, with an ever-growing faith That now is not my time Oh let it rain
