Don'T Lose Hope

I need another outlet
Can't break down-not yet. 
Been strong this long,
Anything else would be so wrong.
No razors, no blades
Wait for the pain to fade.
Sleep it off. Dream all day.
Don't let your control slip away
Take a deep breath
...inhale...
...exhale...
You aren't ready to fail
Do it for her, do it for him.
Face your demons until they dim.
Just remember you'll make it through
Skies always go from grey to blue
You've made it this far,  you've got a 
purpose
Read this well and I hope you've learned 
this
Only God can take you from this planet
Its not up to you, He's already planned it.
Go with the flow, don't give a damn
If people want to hate you, that's on them
You are who you are, perfectly imperfect
Take what you have, be grateful for it.
You were born to smile, to laugh, to dream
I know things can be harder than they 
seem
Just trust in Him, He knows what He's 
doing
The world is harsh but I hope these words 
were soothing.
