I saw hope

Floated 'pon the air

I reached out to it

And held it near

​

I felt a passion

It burned in my soul

I reached in t'wards it

And made it my goal

​

I had a vision

It interrupted my sleep

I chased and caught it

Now mine to keep

​

I heard a cry

Thru' my heart it tore

I offered my help

Too hard to ignore

​

I had a dream

A dream about me

And in it I was

What I wanted to be
