Tomorrow may be a better day

Life has many ups and downs
I don’t always like being around

It’s often what a person makes of it
I’m just hoping I’ll make many things fit

The pain goes within my heart so deep
I hardly get a good night’s sleep

I often wonder what’s gone wrong
So many times the feelings seem to strong

Many people’s opinions destroy a person’s soul
I’m not so sure I can keep my life in order it seems to be at times so cold

To handle the ups and the downs can be tiring and crazy
There’s days I can’t help but get depressed and somewhat lazy

Not knowing where to go from here
Opening the door to find a place to go some where

Want to run and scream in pain
It’s never a dull moment in times so vain

Pouring my heart into things I need to do
Often wondering if at all I may be through

Not sure there are many other days that can be brighter
How come it feels at times I have to be the only fighter

To get through each day with a new outlook
Maybe my life just seems like a terrible book

Don’t want to cry nor laugh if true
My life has uncertainties that make my heart feel blue

Alone can be alone within one’s own mind
I often search for a road to travel but, am at times to blind

Heart is heavy and sad some days
Only for a moment’s time do I get so mad

To take a day’s time to look and see
How life can so often pass by me

These feeling of emptiness come and go
I just want to feel happier than being left out in the cold

Some days are brighter so pretty and new
I’ll keep my head held high in hopes of hearts so true

That I’m not so alone on these many yearly days
I sometimes wonder what other people might say

Today’s another day to search and to find
My eyes can open up and no longer will they be blind

Life has many ups and downs
I don’t always like being around

Today’s are always a new uncertain day
I’ll often wish and then I’d pray

Tomorrow may be a better day
