Cant Give Up

Something stressful is on my mind. I am jobless, trying not to end up homeless. Although the 
stress builds up, I still don't want to give up.
Jail changed me, I came out a better me. The happiest day of my life was when I made my 
lady my wife. I'm so in love and sprung, I was looking forward to that summer fun. I don't 
want her to do this alone. We are a team and this is our home. I cant let my wife down, I'm 
suppose to be her other half and provide for her. I'm scared to lose her. I love her....
I refuse to lose the greatest gift god has given me.
