"Motive"
Broken and dark
I was hazardous to me
Lost
And nearly destroyed by a black and white world of
expectations
I can now see in color
At least little specs of kaleidoscope hope
I can now taste just a bit of sunshine on my tongue
My way to tomorrow is winding
It will not be a simple elevator to happiness
But I Know I will earn it
My next moment will be mine
It no longer will be guided by them
Him
Or even her
Each desire I achieve
Each chance I take
Each second I seize
It is all for me
From the dust I step forward
From the grey shadows of despair I escape
Now is the time to chase the dreams I almost forgot
Now is excited anticipation
