The Journey

I feel it in my bones,

I hurt in my every move,

They treat me with these types of drones

My hair is gone and no longer smooth

My mother cries while she hears my groans

But I tell her, “ Just keep hope! "

I feel sick about the money

To them I am just a burden

My mother tells me “ Don't worry honey!”

But sometimes I just want to end the uncertain

In my thoughts I feel so lonely

But I tell myself, “ Just keep hope! "

My mother wails as the doctor tells the tale.

Am I really going home?

I'm being released from this jail!

The outside world i'm now free to roam!

I have finally made bail!

And I know its because “ I just kept hope!"

“Boom! Boom! Boom!" Goes my chest.

I see a bright light, I lay there shaking,

I lie there calmly, finaly at rest

Then came a flat line not even waking

Inside the pearly gates, I end my quest

Now I know the meaning of “I just kept hope!”
