Life's Struggles
Each and every day goes by
The struggles I face make me cry
It's become harder to keep a straight face
While depression increases at a rapid pace
The joys in life start to fade
As the bills pile up I haven't paid
Listening to my children laugh and play
Gives me hope for another day
God never gives us more then we can handle
I take a bath and light a scented candle
I prey to god to help me live
Honestly I have nothing left to give
I just want to live a happy life
One day become Henry's wife
All the obstacles in my way
Makes it harder to push through each day
I no longer can see my future ahead
All I see is black cloudiness dread
Theirs so many struggles in life
It seem hopeless and I pick up the knife.
I had asked for help before it's to late
With the way I was feeling I couldn't wait
I want to be here to see my children grow up
Watch them help raise their little pup
Their is light in the darkest tunnels if you look
It can come in many forms people or books
life's not worth ending because money is tight
So join me stay and fight.
