"Worth The Fight"

Your eyes hold in a fixed gaze

Waist deep in the turmoil of life

You wade through the turbulent waters

A river of tears flow freely from within

There is no stopping the flood

Anger

Pain

Confusion

Depression boils out from the cracks within the surface

Nothing can be hidden form the eyes of the world

For all has become bigger than yourself

Its grown beyond your world

And almost past the realm of understanding

How do you find yourself here?

Abandonment has come to pass

From the only safe harbor you once knew

Footsteps have led you to this place of darkness

Now filled with too many empty corners where sunlight no longer shines

Destination unknown

But what is...?

One must embrace those things that are

We are more than our mistakes

Breath into and though the moments

Sometimes life takes its own path

We must do our best to hang on

Hold on and reach out

Because when we rise together

Strength is found in numbers.
