Cry Agony By: Stephen M.

Standing atop this mountain of broken dreams Shattered hearts and ambitions torn asunder I lift my face in the air and cry agony As I see the devastation wrought Upon these lost souls, die tragedy Caught in darkness, caught in pain Their tears burn and sting and douse the flames Fate is fate, yet influenced by what we make Our inner fires, our burning desires Often doused by fear, hatred, regret, and guilt Enlightenment never realized, goals never met Our paths blocked by hesitation and doubt You say you cant but I say you will You say you quit but I say you just begin See the light, free your strength Dont be chained by old clichs Take those chances, make the plunge And should you fall, Ill be there to save you Put you back on your feet again Believe and trust, have hope and faith Hang on to a good thing See what you have, cherish it and let it grow For life is chance, a roll of the dice Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose But its what we do in the aftermath That determines the heroes The ones who lead others to the light
