Hand in Hand with Brokenness

Hope with always follow pain

A light dims from a burning glow 
Where the flame went you will never know 
Just a glimmer from what you used to be 
Hope walking on a broken street 
And you shuffle forward in defeat 

Faith cracked from the strain 
Will bends from the constant pain 
Another hangover to cure the wounded heart 
A sinners lullaby to soothe the scars
But tragedy will always leave its mark 

When the bottles have all gone dry 
And you look for a second chance at life 
Hope walks hands in hand with brokenness
As you leave behind the emptiness 
And walk into the lights embrace

I really like the progression of this, the going from a broken individual to a person who has decided to recover and embrace the light. Its very lovely! Would you mind if I sent this to a friend? She'd really like it, I'll give ya cred still but she don't have an account on here :/
