Believe In You

A breath can be a struggle
When the heart lies on the floor
So easily your dreams can fade
Some leave forever more

Your world can lose its colours
The brightness disappears
And everything seems muted
When listening through your tears

Weakness forms a part of you
Its an effort for the mind
To comprehend the damage done
When love leaves you behind

But willingness and self respect
Along with good old pride
Will see you through another day
The pain will soon subside

Find a way to hold yourself
Stand true to all you are
Believe you can attain new breath
To reach is not that far

For within,we all are special
And deserve the right to be
Uncompromised within ourselves
Untouched,forever free
