What People Say

As people tell me it shall be alright, I see the sun bringing forth morning light. I have to survive this strange twist of fate, I get up to find I have wiped clean the slate. The world lately have been a little rough, I try to be positive but find it is tough. If I can simply make it through this day, Maybe the world will start to spin my way. It’s not that I don’t have enough hope, It appears like my fate hangs from a rope. The noose tightens and squeezes out life, I can’t see the beauty when I’m lost in the strife. Still I feel I have it much better than most, I see parts disappear I seem like a ghost. I take a step forward and two back, I can’t see what is, only what I lack. I try to break free yet the world still spins, I count up the losses and hope for more wins. A couple kind words and I shall be on my way, Perhaps I can see life in a different way? The sun retreat from the vast blue sky, I look up above to view a lone bird fly. Into the colors that explode all around. A curtain of darkness drops without a sound. After a while it is getting quite dark, Stars shine like the peace in my heart. I seem to have survived another day, I’ll be alright just as people do say.
