WORTH A SHOT

Raven333

So now I know why,

I went there.

Down that long

And lonely road.

To learn and grow

Within myself,

And see

What I have sown.

I know

There are some hard times,

Waiting just for me.

Evil around the corners,

Things I can not see.

My faith

That I have,

Has carried me

And has always,

Seen me through.

I believe

It will never leave me,

It has

Been my only tool.

Even though

I still stumble,

And I know

That I have done wrong.

As long

As I keep my eyes wide open,

And sing that peaceful song.

Remembering

All the heartaches,

That life

Has put me through,

So I keep myself focused

And do,

What I have to do.

All that I am saying,

Is that

I have realized a lot.

I know

That there is more out there,

And there is no gold

At the end,

Of that rainbow

There is no pot.

Knowing what I know,

What the hell...

Isn't everything..

Worth A Shot.?
