I'm exhausted from writing of sadness and grief,
About dead end roads, wrong turns and disbelief.
Should my focus ever be shifting,
I would prefer to write of happiness, something uplifting.
From heartbreak to daybreak,
For peace of mind, and my own sake.
Embracing my failures, rejoicing in my success,
Content with always doing my best.
Those words never seem to come as easily,
I MUST search beyond the darkness in me.
