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.
