Let your hopes be my hopes.
Let your ways be my ways.
Let your path be my path.
May I walk with you always.
Let your Light be my Light.
Let your rays be my rays.
Let your will be my will.
May I walk with you always.
Let your joys be my joys.
Let your days be my days.
Let your heart be my heart.
May I walk with you always.

I forget I’m human all the time…
That I have a voice,
And a say,
And although things won’t always go my way,
That I can speak out, and have a choice.
I forget I’m human all the time…
Yet, I’ve decided…
It’s okay.
It’s just a human body anyway;
And we’re more than where we’ve resided.
I forget I’m not human sometimes…
That I am a soul,
And not bone,
And it’s normal to feel lost and alone…
As we journey, mere sparks of a whole…
Universe.

Evil urgently seeks validation:
“Come hither, join,…agree,”
And grasps to near suffocation,…
Human souls, so desperately.
While Good needs no validation at all,
And ‘lone stands resolute.
For human hearts all know the call,
Of the morally absolute.
So stand alone…proud and strong. Do what’s right!
Strength is not in numbers,
Rather it’s in the Brightest Light,
To which darkness writhes and cowers.
For evil depresses,…
Good empowers.

A new year has dawned,
O’er the Kingdom of Man,
In this age of great peril,
Where one does what one can,
To ward off evil,
And fortify the walls,
Of Truth, Light, and what is Right,
Against bespoken calls,
For dark to descend,
And snuff out divine Light,
From the spirits of all men,
And consume them in night.
Yet, no matter what,
Night will not ever win,
For Light, Goodness, and the Truth,
Always find a way in…
And radiate.

You never came for me,
So I came for myself.
I wandered for years in search of me,
I took on the quest begrudgingly,
Because no one else would.
On Earth, we merely cope,
And do our best, despite;
Yet, though it may seem a tired old trope,
I have learned that where there’s hope, there’s life,
And where there’s life, there’s hope.
