hope for a better day

poem by: Ryan Barger
Written on Sep 06, 2015 

Wandering 
Through versions of the past
Following they 
That have gone before
Some long ago
Others more recently
As if I were in a dream
Carrying the torch
Of days gone by
Into a future
I might not live to see
So many questions
Only beginning to be answered
And all I've seen
Is so overwhelming
As hints from fallen loved ones
Guide me along the way
All I can do is hope
Hope for a better day
