Me Against Myself

A multitude of subjects clouded the fall,
         i tryed and i tryed but, couldn`t stand tall,
           i felt i didn`t have a friend on the earth,
            the feeling so bad i didn`t feel worth,

             Anything to anybody that i could see,
              but seeing it now,that wasn`t to be,
                my family and friends, were always there,
                  to stand beside me and show they care.

                    I met a girl,whom i later married,
                     rose my spirits,my soul was carried,
                       lifted up and now that cloud...
                        has brightened,my daughter and grandson and now grand daughter,i`m so proud.
