There’s a raging war Not quite an average war The war against myself There are tears There are words There are thoughts They are not simple It seems like a dilemma I don’t think I’ll win she says She says it’s not worth the pain There’s a small voice in the back A voice that trusts and believes She says you’ve got this It gets better they say It gets easier along the way With the right skills it may work I may win the war The words get quieter The tears lighter If only I knew what I could do
