Until All is Right With the World...

When all you want
is another day
when all you have
is to hope and pray
when all you can think
is what no one can say
you watch
you hope
and somehow
you wait...

When you need tomorrow for a second chance
to take what is given, and let it enhance;
when today you might promise to go any lengths -
knowing nothing is easy, and the passive needs strength...

When all you want
seemed so easy before
when all of your choices
are semi-closed doors

Cross your fingers, and leave them curled
until all is right -
all is right with the world
