Desperate to Find a New Tomorrow
Things in this world need to change
Desperate to Find a New Tomorrow
The air is thick, the night is still,
Dreams collapse against my will.
The weight of shadows drags me low,
Yet I ache for a path I do not know.
Hope whispers faintly, a fragile thread,
Amid the ruins of words unsaid.
The stars seem distant, their light subdued,
Reflecting my soul in solitude.
I reach for dawn, though clouds conspire,
To snuff the spark of my heart’s desire.
But embered within, a flicker remains,
A stubborn pulse in my weary veins.
Oh, tomorrow, so far, so near,
Your promise dances beyond my fear.
Lead me to fields where sunlight streams,
And I can rebuild the shattered dreams.
Though I am desperate, I will not yield,
For even the broken can find a shield.
With every breath, I’ll chase and fight,
To claim a tomorrow bathed in light.

How, Too
Many people wonder how, too. You are not alone, and I am an expert. I will teach you how, too! First, you need to remit a small application fee and fill out an application describing the nature of your financial situation and how often payments will be made, as this will have great bearing on how well I teach you how, too.
