My life is not an easy one
A demons work is never done
I hear them while I sleep at night
I seem them when I switch the light
My mind pretends to know me well
To keep me close and make me dwell
But the past is never coming back
If I know anything, I know that.
I remember seeing lights so bright
They gave me reasons left to fight
And if I fail, at least I tried
Choosing life over the thought of flight.
Well my loved ones are the angels now
And I remember when I am down
That wings tattooed upon my back
Are there to keep my life on track
My journeys blessed with hope and grace
And the glow within, my daughters face
Well I may never heal whats done
But in the future I have won.
Now when I close my eyes at night
The angles are right by my side.
remembering those lights so bright
That gave me reason left to fight
And if I fail, at least I tried
Choosing life over the thought of flight.
Wow.

Wow. That is beautiful.
Yesterdays lesson is learnt, today live in this moment and tomorrow – hope.

The word seems to be “beautiful” in the comments section…have to agree.
Nice self-confirmation, I like the way it doesn’t have to be flashy, it is just convincing and peaceful. I hope it’s a strong one to ‘feel like again’.
Please keep writing and sharing. I hear, I feel what you say, and I hug you in my mind, and I take something from that hug. Keep choosing life, for it is in so choosing the lights stay bright. Thank you. And forgive my blabbering!
