RECOVERY I see a ray of hope today My life's no longer shades of gray For in life's game that people play I feel that I might win today. Off in the distance I can see The person that I used to be She's coming closer, cautiously Her final step is up to me. Am I prepared to take her in? Let happy times and laughter win? To face my problems with a grin? To hold up proudly eyes and chin? Today I think she'll have to wait. The pain is still too deep...too great. I hope tomorrow's not too late But only God knows what's my fate. by © Barbara A. Duits 1999 Return to Index HomePage
