My life is a flurry of events
every minute counts and i cannot waste a second
even when my small,weary baby cries out to me,
i cannot stop and give her a hug and whisper to her “everything will be okay baby,just a little more time”
i cannot whisper to her because i have got to go to my workplace lest i loose my job and no longer put food on the table.

My life is complicated, i made it so
or at least everyone whispers in the corridors and when i pass by they pretend they are smiling,i just heard what you said.
I made it complicated by choosing to leave my baby’s father who beat me up,spat on me,ridiculed me……
complicated because i chose a life free of violence and the money
oh the money,glorious money they all worship.

My life is my own and when i say i will better my life,i will,i have just started…..

I’m gonna read into the light

so you can see why these words are so bright they’ll make you fly.

they are words of hope and meant for those

who feel like they are dying

their life just by a thread hanging

you feel like the world has turned on you there’s no denying

the pain and hurt inside too much and you just crying

well if you look up into this bright light

you will see you are not alone

you are with me

i am here to give you strength so you can overcome

all those raging emotions inside you and you will be calm

i am here to dry your tears,to fade your fears,just take heart my dear

to walk with you this narrow road,

to give you hope for the future you feel is naught

to guide your steps,through this long stretch

to make you see its not all a waste.

i am her to give you a hug and encourage you we are almost done
