Trials and Tribulations
Given up at the start
Taken quickly from the heart
Right away, feel the pain
No longer safe, warm, and sain
Always needing, wanting more
Not getting what you’re asking for
A crying shame, a permanent sore
Only a glimpse of what is in store
Slowly losing what’s inside
Inner self begins to hide
Finding fear in all around
Never want to make a sound
Forced to carry on the day
Always choosing the wrong way
Later on, you go away
Learn the part of life you pay
Alone and tethered, but free at last
Trying to forget the past
Angry thoughts the mind will show
No matter what they will not go
Sadness creeps without a warn
Feeling broken, hurt and torn
Understanding how it goes
That some don’t know they could have chose
It’s up to you to make it right
Have to give it all your might
Hope will truly once prevail
One day you will finally sail.
