Alone
Waking
up to a new day and taking in a breath of air as deep as the ocean, I
feel so relieved to be alive. Everyday is a miracle overlooked. I'm happy
to be here after all I've been through and all that I am going to be put
through. Life is a never-ending series of battles. Sometimes I'm triumphant,
sometimes I'm not, but the fact that I try is all that counts. Each day
passes and hundreds of problems come flying at me - a million things pass
me by. All I can really do is keep my head high and roll with the punches.
If I don't, I'll just end up at the bottom only to get stepped on harder.
Take pride in yourself, your work, your beliefs and you can't do yourself
wrong...you'll make it to the top---
I promised
to follow my heart, but I was held back from doing that. Maybe if I did
what my heart desired I wouldn't be stuck here..confused. I look at the
stars and remember how I wished upon them with you. That's what I crave,
a look at the stars.
The lights
of the city block them out though, another disappointment. I suppose happiness
is just hard to find, especially when your alone.
