Discouraged

Hard to not be discouraged When the world keeps getting in your face Hard not to give up, give in When you just can’t keep up the pace More bad news Another job lost Just can’t keep up With Rising costs Not just me It’s everyone I know No one has answers Or knows where to go I want to make things simple But my soul is too far in debt I prayed to Jesus to help us all out And as they say “Jesus wept” I want to become a modern day Robin Hood Rob the rich to give to the poor But I’m not quite sure how to find them Gated villages don’t allow door to door Life isn’t fair has gone beyond cliché Struggle seems to be the norm Seems like even the good days Merely disguise the ugly storm
