Even If It's Only For a Day...

I try to find A happy place To go to Just to escape Even if it's only for a day... I try to stop crying Try to wipe these tears from My eyes Even if it's only for a day... I try to look Inside myself and Find me Even if it's only for a day... I try to forgive Even when it Hurts to try Even if it's only for a day... I try to Forget I'm in So much pain Even if it's only for a day... Maybe I'll try again tomorrow....

This really touched my heart, I hope the speaker in this poem finds that happy place they are looking for. Sometimes all we can do is just take it that one day at a time, as stated "even if it's only for a day," can be wonderfully true advice. I have found that when I try to take in more than one day at a time, it sometimes can feel overwhelming; one day at a time is often more than enough! :) Beautifully written. God bless and peace to you... Amy :)
