Through the hills and valleys.<\/p>\n
I never stood a chance.<\/p>\n
Through despair and agony.<\/p>\n
I never stood a chance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The hardships I faced.<\/p>\n
The battles I charged.<\/p>\n
The mercy I was shown.<\/p>\n
The charity I showed.<\/p>\n
All for naught.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the coldest winter days,<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful of warmth.<\/p>\n
In the hottest summer days,<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful of coldness.<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful in doubt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“I never stood a chance did I?”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“That’s the sad part – you did once.”<\/p>\n
From the hills and the valleys<\/p>\n
You journeyed.<\/p>\n
From the despair and agony<\/p>\n
You journeyed.<\/p>\n
The chances you took and spared.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The hardships you faced.<\/p>\n
The battles you charged.<\/p>\n
The mercy you were shown.<\/p>\n
The charity you showed.<\/p>\n
All for the next chance to do it again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the coldest winter days,<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful of you.<\/p>\n
In the hottest summer days,<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful of you.<\/p>\n
I remained hopeful in doubt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now from doubt you come.<\/p>\n
Doubt of if this was all worth it,<\/p>\n
Doubt that you have the strength to continue,<\/p>\n
Doubt that tomorrow will come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
