As I Struggle

by Tasha   May 3, 2006


I thought that I was getting closer.
But then I fell and lost my place.
Now I stumble once again, trying to get back on my feet.
But you keep on holding me down.
Why do you do this to me?
Pull me forward, to keep me going.
Then let go as soon as I believe.
You know that I can't do this alone.
Still you leave without a simple warning.
They all stare at me as I struggle to reach your hand.
But you just stand there watching me with a blank expression.
As if you are ashamed of me for not getting there.
But I need you to help pull me through.
They are all getting closer, trying to see when I will give up.
But still you stand, with them all.
What are you waiting for!?!
I need your hand along with your encouragement.
Over all I just need you to believe in me again.
And to stand away from them who look down upon me...
I need you to care. -
