the road to Emme

No mountains no hills
No hot summer no winter chills
This journey I’m about to start
Surpasses any and all of that

There’s my destination but where’s the path
How long is this quest going to last
How many hours of loneliness
In moments of despair how many tears

No one to comfort me no one knows
I’ll be the only one taking the blows
Can anybody hear me crying in pain
Can she see me from where she’s standing

I can’t give up I have to try
I have to learn and understand why
I need answers to what I’m feeling
I need reasons behind my longings

There were times when I give in
There were moments when she’s out of reach
There were obstacles and setbacks
There were detours and mistaken tracks

Here I am at the end of my strife
How the hell did I survive
There she is waiting me
There she is the girl of my dream

I am at peace by her side
She’ll heal my bruise and my cut
It’s a treacherous walk to deliverance
It’s a great leap for freedom
It’s a discovery of who I am
It’s a long road to Emme
