Better Things

I can't live without a hope

A hope that there is more

My goal isn't to learn to cope

But to remember there's a future in store.

                                There are better things.

A little creature sits and stares

A tiny being so filled with despair

My lifelong goal is to show I care

By rescuing these creatures; by being there.

                                 A vet creates better things. 

Someone to love and be loved by

A man to hold so deep inside

A partner, support, a love divine

To be a unique and compassionate bride.

                               Marriage creates better things. 

Bows, tutus, pretty in pink

Being a mother is truly unique

Nothing as special as loving a child

My world lights up wiht just one smile.

                               Children create better things. 

I can't live without this hope

A hope for better things

Someday I'll reach these goals

And happiness they'll bring.

                              There will be better things.
