Analysis of More Than Enough



I sleep alone, the night hides it's stars.
Time heals the wounds, but what of the scars?
I am less... than the hope of my dreams.
The whispers are muted, so what of the screams?
If you are trusted, with secrets held dear,
prove yourself worthy, fear not the fear.
This my friend, I say without pause,
Good deeds are not forgotten, nor are they lost.
Hold on to the hope, you knew in your youth.
Learn from the wisdom, that speaks more than truth.
What more is there? Above all else love.
Stronger than all, it's more than enough.
