For All of My Fans

I sit down to write yet feel quite humble. I falter sometimes and then I just stumble. The people around me seem to lift me back up. As we join together to drink from life’s cup. I think of the words but they are more than that. They become the story that tells where I am at. They all join together to tell the journey of life, Sometimes very joyful, while others in strife. The support that I get helps me to move on, It seems to replace some pieces that are gone. Kindness envelopes and with it comes peace, I view my life before me like I have a new lease. I’m not really sure if everyone knows they are part, They all have this special place inside of my heart. Though some times are rough I always get through. I send out all my thanks to all of you… I don’t know what is next, I just continue to try, It beats the alternative when part of you dies. I seem to gain the strength to win the fight, I try to resist yet it takes all of my might. I am so grateful for what I do get. I look to the future but I’m not there yet. With the suggestions and help from my friends, I find myself inside of the messages it sends. I know a few things yet I thirst for more. What lies before me I’m not really sure. Know with all this help I can’t go wrong, So let’s join together, sing this victory song. What is before us can’t break us inside, Long as we have each other to confide. I’m thankful for all that you bring out in me I open my eyes yet it is you that I see.
