Another day here. Another day gone. Another day wishing I had somewhere I belonged. Another day comes. Another day goes. Another day with nothing to show. Another day begins. Another day ends. Another day with no new friends. But in spite of it all, I still hold on to hope That someday, someone will help me Be more like a river And less like a wall

More like a river...less like a wall
You don't have to wish you could be strong. It takes courage to stay alive when you feel trapped and in pain. You didn't know it, but you've been strong all along. You don't have to wish you could feel like you had somewhere to belong. You're human. You're in a club bigger than you could ever imagine. So go ahead. Sing your song. You don't have to be afraid you aren't enough. You standing here proves you can push through when the going gets rough. Bottom line, you don't have to think, wish, or be afraid of anything Because you already are everything.

You don't have to
If you don't think I'm trying, you're wrong. At first, I was just trying to find somewhere I belong. But somewhere along the way, I realized I wanted something more. Deserved something more. Sometimes, we forget what's worth fighting for. We forget who we are. We forget it's okay to reach for the stars. Sometimes, people need to be reminded that just because they can't see them, it doesn't mean we don't have scars. But the truth is, everyone has scars in some way, shape, or form. Proof that at one point, they were able to ride out a storm. Everyone's journey is different. But there are two things I know for sure. We're all human, and you deserve more.
