Everybody Keeps Telling Me That Ill Be Just Fine

It saddens me to know this is the way I felt at 19 yrs old..

Everybody keeps telling me ill be just fine
But they aint tellling me when
I can't sit here and pretend
That I don't have a broken heart and there's nothing to mend
Night after night prayer after prayer I always send
Hold my head at the same time it feels so heavy
Wanna be happy but its like the Lord won't let me
Forgive me father I know I have sinned thank you for my blessings 
May I ask you one more thing?

You have found an outlet to write out your heart and soul. Both are filled with beauty and love. You will sour high in any direction you go. Hugs Michael
