Life can be so wonderful
Yet, at times we see life through stained glass
It blocks our energy, it hinders our joy, and misleads our path
We may imprison ourselves within it unaware of our own abyss which we have
generated
Blurred by messages or circumstances that we allow to persecute us, leading
to unrest and unjust
We have surrendered to this destiny knowing not which way to turn
We look for answers in others, who are stained within this dredged as well
Wondering how in the world can they help us or one another when their life is
also misspelled
Yes, they as well are trapped within this looking glass with no light
piercing through
Trapped within its walls and wondering how things can be so misconstrued

Outward forces looking in trying to reach us through altered forms of
communication
They take our hands to guide us away from such a hideous place and we receive
them without reservation
Affirmed in righteousness and belief that all can be saved
They empower our hearts and minds that all is not lost or has been mislaid
We rest for but a second before leaving this place looking around not back
from what caused us to covet this space
Grabbing hold we lounge fearlessly outward
Reaching and stretching for that knowledge that has moved us forward
Out of the madness and the rage we spring without difficulty
Not a doubt in our minds we have been illuminated and found clarity
We have discharged the blur and found fullness in radiance and shine
Bringing our innersoles to surface and with an OpenMind
We now see Crystal Clear befitting in beauty
With energy to expand and reach beyond continuity
We strive for all that we can take and muster up beyond any circumstances
We see beyond all faults that anything and anyone in life is worth saving
Bestowed in virtue and belief to not hinder or hold but allow the fountain to
flow through and with never-ending glow we are all worth conveying this
message of deliverance
Leading us to a life filled with such richness in Continuance
We keep the chain attached for others to escape from that uncalled.
forgotten, and forsaken place
