All I Know
I want some kind of...
Hope.
Just a small glimpse to know
That maybe I will be okay in life.
Maybe I will actually go somewhere.
I want...
I don't know what I want.
I'm not even 15 years old yet.
What's the point in trying to sort out the things
I only superficially "want"
When in a few years,
All of that will change.
I know I want love.
And I know that I have it.
And I know that I want it to last.
Maybe it will,
Maybe it won't.
Who knows?
And who's to say that I need to know.
I don't.
I need to trust that
God will never give me anything I can't handle.
And that He'll take care of me.
I want to help people.
I doubt that that will ever change.
I want to take away some of people's pain.
Make it easier for them to bear.
If I could take it all on myself,
I would.
But I can't.
So, maybe I can help a little bit by
Offering hope to someone else.
Helping them to know,
That they WILL go somewhere in life.
They're important.
Their pain is not in vain.
And I know that I don't want anyone to EVER
In a million,
Heck,
Over nine thousand years,
Go what I've gone through
Or worse.
I know that.
And I suppose that's all I really need to know right now.
