Take a walk with me

Take a walk with me

When the air is silent and the leaves are still

Take a walk with me


When the creek is dry and the earth is cracked

Take a walk with me


When the night is dark and the stars are dimmed

Take a walk with me


I AM here

Trust the walk


Take a walk with me


When the noise shatters glass and the pieces cut

Take a walk with me


When the chaos consumes and the storm rages

Take a walk with me


When the struggle wrongs and the cup is empty

Take a walk with me


I AM here

Trust each step

Take a walk with me


When clouds gather and the temperature drops

Take a walk with me


When the puddles muddy and the rain drenches

Take a walk with me


When the leaves drop and cold chill pierces

Take a walk with me


I AM here

Trust the journey
