Chaos all around
uptight and stressed out
with the pain of living life
wandering
searching...
when broken promises of yesterday
and worries of today
bring only fears of the future
When the pain
seems to much to pay
lift your head and pray
ask for the tender touch of peace
to struggle though another day...
