Reaching For The Future

It’s hard to dream with a dream so far away

The slightest touch of hope brings you to a new way

Only to be lead astray from the lies you once blocked

You realize it and back away, remembering what you’re taught



It’s hard to believe when it seems too long a distance

The heavy heart lies within you bringing resistance

Fighting for a different dream is not what you believe

You can’t keep it away forever, because it’s all that you need



Help me to see what I have been waiting for

Teach me to be someone who stays on course

Tell me to leave the lies that brought me here

Show me the key to being patience without crying tears

Love me so I can walk to a better place

Knowing someday I’ll find a love worth the wait
