Find Strength To Carry On

Although the days seem dark
There's still light there within 
You may not see it shinning now
While your feeling pretty dim 
But believe that people see you 
shinning just like a star
So instead of drifting off 
Please stay here where you are..

If people only knew 
The pain you were going through
I'm sure everyone would hug you 
To remove your feeling blue

If only you could see yourself
The way others do
Perhaps it would be enough 
To cure that feeling blue 

Your special in many eyes
And loved so very true
So if today's a tough day 
Read this to pull you through 

Life can be a battle 
I'm battling here now too 
But let's fight back together 
If I can you can too

Life is worth the living
It's precious through and through
If you can not see it now
Believe what I say is true 

Tomorrow can be so different 
If you hold on you will see
Tomorrow is a blessing 
For both you and me
