The way I’ve learned to be
Take care of myself, cause no one else will
Going ever so slowly through the fog
Legs, heart hurting from it all
Constant moving but in place
It’s hard to hold up my face
Because then you’ll see the truth
I fake it until I make it, shame there’s a
Trace would my family and friends think
Me a disgrace?
I talk and talk and talk with no much follow
Through… gotta begin anew
This prayer I Trace on my lips from my heart
Dear God,
Hear me loud and clear
I’ve walked through life with life altering fear
Trust faltered; willpower diminished
We talk a lot, my mind cloudy, mouth hot
I ask please forget me not
Things I wanna do but scared of failure
I ask for your guidance for the big step
I want to take
Be near me, talk with me
Help me understand that you help those whom
Help themselves that’s how you lend
A helping hand. Amen
