Falling Rocks

It’s hard to see the good when your 
bombarded with the bad.
It’s hard to crack a smile when your 
soul and mind are very sad.

It’s hard to hear angels whisper 
when the demons start to sing.
It’s hard to find the light when the 
horizon is so dim.

It’s hard to feel humanity when you 
hear the animals scream and cry.
It’s hard to see the reasoning when 
you get beaten for asking why.

It’s hard to feel empathic when they 
burn your love away.
It’s hard to keep your temper when 
fools provoke you in every way. 

It’s hard to walk a straight line when 
life keeps twisting all your dreams.
It’s hard to trust another when no one 
is who they seem to be.

It’s hard to find comfort when the 
rocks begin to fall.
It’s hard to feel compassion when 
your beating down every wall.

It hard to find the sanity lurking in 
the back of your mind.
It’s hard to listen to nothing when 
inside you starts to cry.

It’s hard to see the point of it when 
you know how easy it is to take away.
It’s hard to keep your grip on life 
when it changes every second of every 
minute of every day.
