It Was Hard…


It was a hard harsh lonely journey,
And many a storm to face,
I didn't cope, I was beaten down,
And my strength left me – post haste!

And though the road was long and lonely,
There was always a glimmer of light,
It was just dipped so I couldn't see it,
But it was never really out of sight.

And now as the weeks turn into months,
I see a future bright,
No more the fear that I had…
It's getting distant so now I see the light!

I had so many issues in my head,
That it was a kaleidoscope of colours galore,
I didn't see a positive one…
Just black and grey by the score!

And now as I look to the future,
What do I see ahead for me?
Well, the fear is less, and it will go away,
But life is still bumpy for me…

Because though I am getting over the past,
The future's a scary place for me,
I can't look ahead; I'm lost in the wood,
No respite can I see.

Pain in the morning, pain in the evening,
Pain every minute of every day!
Thrown to the kerb, they've given up on me!
Well, basically that's what they say!

Well I haven't given up on myself,
And no other has that right!
One thing about me, as everyone will see…
I will forever continue to fight!

Tossed aside, kicked to the gutter,
Where you would think I will always stay!
But that's not so, absolutely not so!
I will never give up – no way!

I have come this far alone…
Abandoned by the medical system,
Well if I came this far without their help!
Then all I can say to that is; sod them!!!

Never have I been beaten down,
Just glitched from time to time!
And that's allowed, it really is!
But now at last, the future is mine!

I will prevail, and so much more,
For it shall come to pass…
That I did it again, too right I will!
I will always, forever bounce right back!
