SO FARAWAY YET SO CLOSE

 
Looking in the mirror I see yet another line
Of hope and believe etched on her face
Trusting that it will be today since it never came yesterday
Not daunted by misery and sighs of those around but
Always looking on the other side of it

Its always been a miracle will come some how someday
Its coming and today will be the day
Yet another day is gone of the many long days
Another year slips by yet she is determined its so close
The horizon she looks at for hope and succor so far away
Hope that by the day seems undaunted
Faith by the eon years dims not
To the unlooker it looks so far away
Yet she trust its so close.
