There is a God and He is watching over me
There is hope as long as my heart beats
The only way across is through it
There will be peace, I know it
There is a God watching over me
And He will set me free
Tomorrow will be a new day
Anyway, I won’t waste today
Why did I ever stop believing
In all that’s good in this world?
When did I lose faith
In finding and keeping what’s rightfully mine!
How did I fall out of love
with the process of becoming?
Why did I let disappointments cloud my ray of hope?
When did I lose sight of my future, as bright as the stars I preach.
When did I forget that I’m as ready to take on the world as I will ever be.
How did I not see,
Hope is right around the corner;
Miracles happen without even asking;
And life is as beautiful as it can be.
You weren’t an easy goodbye,
But we agreed to disagree,
And knew being apart is how we’ll heal.
I close my eyes and it seems like ages ago
But you know I can still read your mind,
like it was just the day before.
I think of you and smile,
knowing that once upon a time,
You were mine.
I look at you and realise
I did something right.
You weren’t an easy goodbye.
And, though, apart we had to drift,
Our journey was a beautiful gift.
I seek what I know not I want;
I seek an abode in the eye of the storm.
I trust the winds were sent for a reason,
To clear the dust or uproot the unstable base.
I trust that He’s guiding me with His beacon,
Slow or fast, at least I’m moving ahead in my own pace.
I know not what lies ahead;
I fear of losing what’s not mine yet.
I seek what I know not I want.
I found you.
When I sat by myself, introspecting,
You were in the reflection of the glass that I was holding.
When I walked the distance in solitary,
You were in the shadow that kept me company.
When the noise all around became overwhelming,
You were the voice in my head that got me going.
It was surprisingly easy to spot you in all the hullabaloo,
Once I knew what I was looking for was you.
You’re my confidence, the best part of me.
And against all odds, I found you in me.
There’s an oasis in front of me
And it looks so promising!
Being far from it is unsettling
Time is of the essence, you see!
There’s hope and wonder in the wait to reach,
There’s thrill and mystery in its trail,
It’s all glitter and it has got me on its chase.
It’s a place as warm as the winter sun,
And cool like the summer breeze.
It’s where I know I’ve got to be,
It’s where I know one day I’ll be!
At some point, we’ve all wondered
about our life’s purpose
And, haven’t we struggled?!
There are aimless days and sleepless nights.
But as dull as they may be,
they’re still part of the journey.
The blank spaces may be frequent,
but they help us focus on what’s relevant.
It’s a treasure hunt really
trying to find one’s destiny!
