The First Step

The lines on my hand
The lines of this poem
I'm sorry I'm not your lifeline

The words I'm shouting out
The love my heart is shutting out
The guilt I can't keep out

My first try
My first failure
My last time

There is so much of me I'm hating
There is so many mistakes I'm making
But this is the first step I'm taking

Towards redemption
Towards the light
Towards something

And I hope you'll forgive me
And I dream that everything will be alright
As I step forward towards you
