The Long Road Back

Sometimes you look back, only to find that you've strayed from the path

So far removed and way off course, convinced that you are lost forever.

But what you fail to realise is that there’s always a way back

It’s a long road back, a hard road, but it’s there.

But it takes a little soul searching

And the guts to first acknowledge that you may have lost your way.

But it's also a road not many are willing to take

Because, more often than not -

And for some strange reason,

We would rather be ruined than changed.

And that alone says a lot about what we’ve become.

But it’s never too late to turn things around

First you must stop, gather your self and gather your things.

And then build up both the courage and strength to take that all important first step -

on that very long road back.
