if there are times
when the light seems dim
turn within
when the door
won’t open
find the key
under your pillow
where you dream
when in doubt
remember
that the sun will
come up
when in doubt
remember
that an answer
will come
an answer will come
if the birds are still
in the morning trees
set your sights
towards
the sky
when the ocean beats
it’s heady waves to shore
put your hand
over your heart
when in doubt
remember
that the sun will
come up
when in doubt
remember
that an answer will come
an answer will come
there are stars
you haven’t charted
before
there are roads
not on the map
you bought
there are people
waiting for you
over the hill
if you only
take the steps
if the clock
ticks it’s face
as slow as the dust
follow your own time
if the clouds
build until the sky
isn’t clear
close your eyes
and conjure up
the blue skies
that this mist
has covered up
when in doubt
remember
that the sun will come up
when in doubt
remember that an answer
will come
an answer will come
when in doubt
remember
there is someone
out there
who knows
much more than
all the rest
