Hope In Dispair

Reginald.F.Horton

Hope in Despair

I looked in the mirror
At this body of mine
Through eyes that had
Lost all of their shine

Dull sad eyes I only could see
This could not truly be me
A face that was all haggled
Beard and hair not Shawn

I was on the road to decline
Drugs ruining this body of mine
How did I get into this state?
Myself yes I had began to hate

Look what I was doing to this
Once proud body of mine
I was Shaking and shivering
Growing old before my time

Over all my body, my mind
It has lost all its control
Hooked on these heroin drugs
Yes they where ruining my soul

God what have I done to my body
This body you entrusted to me
I pray with all of my heart
That some day I will be free

No more pain, no more sorrow
Begging for money or borrow
My life I will fight to regain
No more drugs I’ll take again

The door it has been opened
They have shown me the light
God has given me the strength
To win this glorious fight
