Baggage

Have you ever felt defeated, alone, or mistreated? Have you ever asked “Why was I deleted”? I feel as if I am going to explode, I am carrying such an enormous load. My fears and worries are very concerning, But most people think that I am not learning. What to do when I feel I am being held down, Running doesn’t help as it is only another town. Staying strong will help me get through, All I ask is that you are with me too. I finally realize our future can be bright, The switch went on and I now see the light. Take me in and hold me tight, We are off on our journey on this the greatest night.
