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.
