Have you ever felt trapped with no way out? As if you’re stuck in the middle of the world’s driest drought? With no water for hydration or food for survival, Desperately searching for answers, so you pick up a bible, And flip through the pages hoping for a sign, Realizing that a “life-manual” isn’t what God left behind, He left behind love, acceptance and peace, Spirits that seem so far out of reach, These days it feels more yin than yang, The darkness inside of my heart acts as a boomerang, I try to throw it far, far away but it always comes back, Throwing my life off-balance, placing me off track, Surrounded by people that say they care but don’t understand, They can’t even see that I am hanging on by a strand, I guess I’m hanging on to the hope of a better tomorrow, Even when I wake up the next morning, drenched in sorrow, I know that one day I will wake up feeling anew, But today is not that day. I will try to push through.
