Falling In, Again by papa55mike

     

the day already seems hopeless

there are so many ways to lose

i'm sure to find one that fits

it won't be long before i'll be falling in,

again

 

will there ever be a time of hope

a day full of peace in my life

it's so hard to smile

while my world is collapsing,

again

 

each step is so painful now

every breath continues to be torture

the minutes creep slowly by

while i'm walking up to the pit, 

again 

 

why do i constantly do this

badgering myself into submission

finding nothing but self-blame

i'm now falling into oblivion,

again

 

after slamming into the bottom

there's a tiny flicker of light the top

inch by inch, foot by foot

i start the journey to the top,

again

 

    

  

  


Author Notes
Years ago, I fought the pit so many times it just became a part of who I was. I was either falling in or climbing out. It took me years to realize that I had the power not to fall into that pit anymore. I can choose to be happy and loved by God.

With all that has happened this year, I never realized that I had fallen in again. It took a couple of months to figure out what happened, but my joy is slowly coming back. With God's help.

Many thanks for reading!
Have a great day and God bless.
mike
