I am mentally exhausted.
I don't know what to do.

Tortuous thoughts running through my head.

Can anyone beat God's love, from above?
Cradling us lovingly, on the wings of a dove.
He never is unkind, bullies, or gives us a...

Friend or enemy?

I know guns are important, but to me they're the enemy.
Because it's how my brother, chose to set himself free.
I know they do good, just look around, we have life and liberty.
I just wish things would have ended differently, for my family and me....

Depression hurts, depression kills.

Depression hurts, depression kills,
It makes us go against our own wills.
It makes us do things, that we never would have done.
Whether it's to ourselves, or to our loved one.
When in that moment, we can't see, for we are blind.
We fail to see the...

Emotionally exhausted!!!!

How perceptive you are, you're very dear.
The true fact is, I wish that you were here.

The exhaustion feels like it is beating me today.
I know that I don't want it to just end this...

Stronger yet!!!!

I try not to let life's chaos get to me.
But some days I falter, I refuse to see.

I try to stay positive, and yet I fall down.
I don't want to see anyone in this...

An amazing feeling.

It's an amazing feeling, that the kind words from others tend to bring.
It helps us realize, that even when we're sad, our hearts can still sing.
It helps to soften the harsh blows, to lessen the heartache and sting.
To allow the words, inside our...

Sadness is all around me.

Sadness is all around me, it's in everyone that I see.
And after all this time, I thought that it was only me.

I would love to reach out, and to hug each one of you.
I would love to show my support, it's the least I can...

Once our innocence has been taken.

Once our innocence has been taken.
It's our very core that has been shaken.

We feel as if we can never get it back.
It's hard for us to find the right track.

Even though we weren't to blame.
The end result is always the...

Making the best of a bad situation!!!!

Making the best of a bad situation.
Takes a lot of love and contemplation.
Trying to survive without total devastation.
For we have been here, from the beginning of creation.
We're bound by honour here, there is no set rule or...

Let me be the shoulder, on which you lean.

Helping you would make me feel simply...

On the brink!

I miss you more than you could possibly ever think.
My throat is dry, I'm in the desert, and I thirst for a drink.
Without you, I'm crashing on the ice, like I've never been in a rink.
You are there one minute, then you're gone the next, I'm afraid...

Its one A.M. and I can't sleep.

It's one AM, I'm laying here, and I can not sleep.
I'm so tired, but sometimes the pain runs deep.
I pray to God that my soul, he will forever keep.
How long can one survive before falling in a...

Getting passed the past.

Painful memories of the past, running through my head.
They always resurface, when I'm laying here in my bed.
They say forget the past, that's not as easy to do as said.
Sometimes I fight depression, thinking I'd be better off...

Happy Birthday Amber!!!!!

Happy Birthday Amber, I know that you are out there.
I just want you to know just how much I really do care.
I want to be there with you, to celebrate, and to share.
The burdens that you face, aren't yours alone to bear.
Living without you, is my...

Louise

Louise, please don't give up, don't give them the power to destroy you!
You and who you choose to tell, truly know what you've been through!

I know you're stronger than you think right now.
So just tell me how to fix this, just tell me...
