Can I ?

Lisa Stanley

Can I -

Reach you with my words

Deep inside

Touch your soul

Tainted and torn?

Can I-

Reach you with my thoughts

The feelings

I struggle with

Day after day?

Can I

Reach into the past

And tear out

All the bad

And leave joy?

Can I-

Reach into my heart

As I reach

Into yours

Finding peace?

Can I -

Reach into the future

And find only

Happiness and love

Or only sadness?

Can I -

Reach out anywhere

Find anything

And smile

Or only falling tears?

Can I?
