Immortal Tears
For all that seems to last
tears appear to be immortal
for we all have cried
Wondering if this struggle will be the last
wondering where the next meal will come from
tears get in the way
when trying to see the end of the tunnel
Suffering seems to out weigh the good
getting high only to fall
when letting go is not an option
tears get in the way
Combined with the hurt
pain seems too much
so many tears shed
waiting for a brighter day
Tears seem to get in the way
when looking for relief
tears fall
The struggles are greater than one should
each day stressed out
being forced to settle for less
while trying to maintain my sanity
there is so much stress
with no hope to expect
