Gratitude
Uncovered
I can finally see the light Even in the dark Through the crack under the door Lying under my blankets, And I've been hiding here Feeling like a failure at life Unsure of my next move Listening to the devil on my shoulder. It gets a little overwhelming And my mental health gets the better of me Ending up feeling like it's a fight for my life Drowning in my self-doubts I'm ready to quit I think I've had enough.

A new day
For tomorrow is a new day And quitter I am not I'm a fighter, of that I'm sure Picking up the pieces of a broken self, Though sometimes life knocks me down I try my best to get back up Eventually I get swallowed by the noise My mind can't decide what's up or down Trying me in maddening ways Fighting against the current I fall prey to those who aim to hurt me Stretched out by others expectations And growing weaker by the day Wishing I was somewhere else Ignoring what is good for me So I feel like I'm alone in this world Sometimes I struggle to connect with people And I make things harder on myself then they need To be There are times I just wanna give up. A little secret about me…
