The Problem
My mind is filled with dark despair
For their has been a death
Within myself I have lost
A problem I have kept
The problem was a friend to me
It made me feel alive
And since it’s gone I surely feel
That part of me hath died
What is this place I see within
This body I call mine
Is it a place, is it a place
Where warmth and calm doth lie
Have I been shown the ways of hope
By someone from above
A second chance to search inside
To learn and trust through love
And does that someone lie within
A kind and gentle man
Who picked me up and held me close
Then put me down again
So grateful for life can be amazing
If you follow the right lead
