.
Dreams, a wish, a want and cloud,
I chased a rainbow all allowed....
I saw futility.
Career, work, a job and more,
opportunities, times, an open door....
I grasped futility!
I entered life I could not shut -
in filth and mud - then in a rut....
I wore futility!
I scaled the ladder - oh, so high -
the lights below I couldn't buy....
I lived futility!
In total darkness, there I was -
you asked me "why"? I said "because"....
In full futility!
Then humbled there, I saw a child,
as I looked down, He saw I smiled....
- and then He set me free.
