I keep the angels on my left,

And the devil to my right,

For everything I hold a place,

To make it all feel right.

Sometimes I walk in nightmares,

Other times in pleasant dreams,

But they both are just reflections,

Of my fragile sanity.

Through my eyes I see such things,

In life both bad and good,

For the rich there’s heaven, for the poor there’s hell,

It never changes though it should.

While reaching out to get a hold,

Of something that seems real ,

But when the cold reality of the truth sets in,

Sometimes life’s hard to feel.

In my resolve I must stand firm,

To not chase spirits foolishly.

To not be afraid to love or dream,

Nor to achieve either of them.

To stand firm in my convictions,

To change those things that I can,

And accept those that I cannot.

To extend my hand from the light,

To help those lost in darkness.

To take the first step in my journey,

No matter how far or where,

My chosen path shall take me..
