*The Truth*
by Jazz
Life - it's a hard one that I live?
Its filled with struggles and mostly pain
All I constantly see is just rain
The burdens I have, you can't compare
With the everyday stress in life... I swear
Scars-they've taken over my body..
that's how I express my sadness, anger and fear
they're on my inside and outside-pretty much everywhere
Watching the bright red slowly flow
All the pains disappear?they just go?
Thoughts-I've had a lot of them
Suicide-lately, that's all that's been in my head
Honestly, I've imagined what it would be like to be dead
That's always what I've looked forward to when in doubt
But now I realize it's just the easy way out
Friends-there's one that has been a big help
She's helped me day by day
By making sure I don't attempt to throw my life away
She's been trying to show me this new path
and I'm truly grateful-Thanks Kath!
Faith-It's slowly growing
I'm just learning to trust and believe
And hopefully I'll be relieved
It's something that I need to freely choose
And the truth is- what do I have to lose?
Love-that's something I've really desired
It's been something that I've just started to see
I've noticed now that it's something my friends have given me
This is the antidote that will make me no longer weep
Someday soon, it will be mine to keep
Hope-something I should try and acquire
That's all I really truly need
Somehow with that, I'll be freed
To live life the way it should be
And forget about all the misery that surrounds me
