So, I have to admit I'm a little freaked out about posting this, but what's life without the odd step outside the comfort zone, right?.....Right??
The oddest thing about my moods is at my lowest point, I usually end up with the inspiration to write. Admittedly, they're usually not the most cheerful pieces, but this was something a little different that I wrote for a friend who was having a bad day, and thought I'd take a chance and share it with anyone here who feels like reading it, which may very well be no one, and that's totally fine too.
Good or bad, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
It must be hard to stand up tall
With the weight of the world on your back
I know that it’s so hard to be strong
When life hits you like a heart attack.
When things finally seem to come together
Then in one moment, they fall apart
When you feel so close to the finish line
But then end up back at the start.
It seems so impossible
To stand up and be strong
It seems it’s all too much to handle
It’s just too hard to hold on
Nothing seems to be going right.
There’s not enough that goes your way
There’s so much that you long to do
But not enough hours in the day
You’re feeling trapped and so alone
It’s like the walls are closing in.
You’re oh so tired of losing
But have forgotten how to win
When everything seems to be wrong
And you’re heart is filled with regret
You’re not sure if you can keep going on,
There is something you just can’t forget.
Though you feel hurt and lost
You’re never truly alone
Forever and always, I’ll be here for you
As you venture into the unknown
If the weight of the world is too much to bare
I’ll be there to share the load
When you end up where you started
I’ll walk with you again, down the road
When you don’t want to hold on anymore
You need only to hold on to me
I will pick you up, help you carry on
Be whatever you need me to be.
You can do much more than you’ll ever know
For you’ve got the strength of the world inside you
But if that strength should ever fail,
I will be strong for you.
