Our Journey

The deep blackness of night reaches out
to steal away the last purple ray of light
we are left so alone,
so totally devoid of spirit and soul
standing on unstable ground
slowly sinking far below
forgotten by society
completely out of sight
an unrelenting void of nothingness


The tendrils of light tangle thru the bleak shadows
begging us to follow
we must draw on our courage & strength
the journey through the faded path is difficult
we thirst for freedom & hunger for acceptance
from our past we finally emerge
following only our hearts, our hopes and our dreams
