Wounds From A Friend

a life marred and scarred by lets downs and disappointments
all too numerous and too painful to count
YET WE STILL FIND A REASON TO TRUST
heartache and heart break
security stripped away
questions without answers
and no formal sense of clarity
STILL WE FIND A REASON TO LOVE
mistakes and poor decisions litter the floor
fall once and fall again
to fall again once more
STILL WE FIND A REASON TO GET UP
dreams blown away with the autumn leaves
desires simply out of reach
and passions sapped of energy
STILL WE FIND A REASON TO HOPE
