Finally Got a Grip

Everything I've done to get this far, I've had to put up one huge fight. Tried to see that light, At the end of the tunnel called life. But it's just so dark there, As if it's the middle of night. My life I once had, Been stolen from me. A bright future ahead, I just couldn't see. Felt I was living On borrowed time. Wasted my life feeling Not worth a dime. Been tested and tried Each and every day. Wonder why on earth I should even stay. When your body physically yearns To be happy and feel right Holding onto everything I have With a grip so incredibly tight. I know one thing, that my family Are ones that kept me alive here Have shown me once again They are behind me, and very near. I began to see the light Now ready once again Take back what's mine Without a fight. Why should I give up here Shed so many tears Past is gone, over, and through With people that caused heartache And so much pain in life too. My wings will no longer be clipped Healing taking place in me A bright future I now can have Without so much misery I can spread my wings and fly away To a place where I desire to stay. Hope being placed inside of me Faith being placed where needed be. By Country Girl47 & Daughter Liz
