No one said
Life would be easy..
But I never imagined
It could be so hard.
Never imagined waking up
Seeing my reflection
And wishing it would all just go away
No one said
One word could make such a difference...
Make you change your life...
Make you do things
You could never imagine doing...
Never said you might wish
You're life were over
No one said
How bad it would feel
To hurt the one's you loved
Nor warned of common complexities
Of today's society
And of what you might do
To try to be "one of the crowd"
No, no one said this
Or did they and we just ignored it?
I can honestly say I never saw myself
Going through what I am now...
Hurting those I love
And being so selfish....
What's not said enough
Is that no one's perfect
And shouldn't be expected to be
But it makes me wonder
If it were said all the much more
Would it even make a difference?
Would people actually listen?
This world is hard
We get by with a little help
From our friends
But sometimes that's not enough
No matter what people always say
Hold on when things get tough
But what do you do
When you feel you've nothing left to hold onto????
