Unexpected Miracle

I walk around with so much on my mind
But nothing seems to make sense
So much weight on me 
It's like the weight of the world is on my shoulders
My head aches and pounds like thunder is hitting it
I try to find some type of peace
But it was taken away 
The people I thought cared about me left
I though of dying right then and there
No one seemed to care so no one will miss me
I then see two people push through the crowd formed
Those two people look down at me 
They tell me they care
But with all the **** I've been through Im not sure this is another lie
Mother Nature must not like me because all my strength has been drained
It's been drained from trying to fight back tears
Trying to put a smile on my face to hide the pain
To not take a drink and pass out and die
To not do drugs that could possibly kill me
I feel these two people's hands holding mine
I look in there eyes
I see that they are not lying 
But with all this I still am not sure
I let go and start to walk away
But then I fall to the ground 
I'm knocked down because I can't take another step
For so long I have carried nothing but sadness,pain, and scars
Infinite number of times I cry in a day 
And endlessly throughout the night
I try to hide so people don't see a trail of tears till from my eyes
The two people who say they care about me try to wipe away my tears but I turn away
They seem hurt and angry
They look as if they are ready to kill and kick butt
But there is no specific person to blame
Because it isn't just one person
It's more than what they could probably handle
They probably do care 
I look in their eyes again and tell them thank you
As tears roll down my cheeks like a raindrops during a storm
I fall into both of their arms 
They hold me close 
I feel safe 
I am still nervous
But I don't want to be alone
These two people stayed with me from that night until the dawn
I wake up they still holding me in their arms 
I didn't ask them to stay
I am worn out and exhausted 
And each of our shirts is soaked 
But there were no complaints
I still feel weak and not sure where to go
Then the other two people wake up
We look into each others eyes 
They get up and each of them takes my hand
I get up and we walk arm in arm 
And they tell me that I am not alone and that they care 
I still feel uneasy 
But I the look in their eyes tells me that I can take this risk 
The three of us walk hand in hand 
I feel stronger than I was before
Now I smile instead of frown
I laugh instead of cry
At night I dream endless dreams of happiness
In the day I enjoy being happy
I look back now and remember thinking I was done
But I look at now and say that I was just in a hole and that now I am on solid ground
People still treat me the same way 
But those to people who stayed with me that night with me
Those people are still with me
I look back and used the past as a motivator 
I say that this was a miracle unexpected
