Why does my eyes sting
Why do we pray or sin
Why do we lose hope
Or is it a downward slope
I find happiness rarely
In my life it feels barely
How sad I sound to you
I don’t know what to do
If happiness comes within
Then maybe I’m waring thin
If sadness I’m surrounded
Need to keep myself grounded
I fear of feeling happy again
For inside of me real pain
If I return a smile or two
I’m smiling truly trying too
We may never know at all
Why we never stand up tall
No matter where we’re at
We’re trying that’s a fact
I’m struck by impending doom
I know what I fear so soon
I cannot stop these feelings
I’ll try through gentle healing
To change so much to me
Is a tall order to be
So push on I’ll try my best
I know my body needs to rest
