Fishing

By Laura July 12, 2015 We have the best of news, they said As rain cascades upon the shed The perfect time for you is now A place where pain is not allowed A harbor from your storm of pain A place where hearts will not refrain We came across this perfect place Where people smile as they embrace You gotta wake up from that dream Where you are still part of their team Cause here we speak of simple things Where all you need is what you bring I know you’re still in so much pain Somehow you haven't gone insane So find your heart; wipe off the dust Make sure your soul will never rust Just stay alive, for one more day So you and I can find a way Don’t ever think you’re leaving here Until your thoughts are crystal clear It’s not a time for you to die I know there’s room for one more try So leave behind your bitter past Start living like you’re meant to last It’s not a crime for you to fail Release your heart, forget the bail Just make it count, ‘cause you are here Please come inside and have a beer The time is now to love your life Like you deserve more than a knife Your pockets may be empty now But we’ll get by, don’t worry how Just let it go; what you went through The boy you were; the pain you knew Be bold enough to make a wish An honest dream; to catch a fish
