Inner Man

Is it time to reassess what’s going wrong And the reasons why life is often a misery A tear A sigh A pitiful look That air of despondency The all consuming fear Is it only you that can see What you going through? Can anyone help you? Locked inside is the hope That will help to release you From a life where woe and despair Harangues you Inside is such a turbulent place You are never at peace Life seems to be selfishly rearranging you Hope has abandoned you Do you feel other peoples indifference? Does your voice seem to only echo And never fall on the ears of those Who might be able to save you? When? That’s your biggest question That never leaves you alone When will I be happy continually And feel satisfied with who I am and Think I should be ? Life has no manual Living is about chances taken Or forced on you That may work out eventually No one can tell what is to be It’s a hard job being strong When tears blind you Despair swallows you And hiding is what you feel Is best for you Your journey is littered With obstacles Real and imagined That are bolder than you And who know everything about you They grab hold of you And just wont untangle you One day you will be free To realise who you truly are An Epiphany that might heal you A burden lifted that lightens you
