There is a voice
Urging me to go on
Telling me not to think
Of the past and where I came from

Quiet yet present
In everything that I do
It says to keep pushing through
For the future holds
So much more for me.

How do I get to that place
The glorious future
Everyone speaks of
Especially when I don’t have a clear picture
Of where I need to go
Or what happens next
It tells me to try my best
And everything
Will be alright.

Just give a little something
And a little bit more
Don’t stop, keep going
It doesn’t matter if you’re unsure
Dig a little bit deeper
Slowly but still take steps
You’ll get there it’s okay to rest
But never stop
Never be idle.

This little voice
Serves as a guiding light
When the darkness comes
It brings hope in the dead of night
Something whispers
“You can do it. It will be okay.”
I can hear it through the fog and the haze
Of my self-doubt
And fear.

  • It shows a rainbow flag up close with all the of the classic colors in view. The order of colors goes as follows: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. There are also slight creases in the image to show how the flag is made of fabric and is moving, just like it would while someone is carrying it.
