Overcoming Today
I stand at the edge of a cliff and I see nothing and no one
I am holding the pieces of my life in the palms of my hand trying despretly to put myself back together again
But it is difficult
The more I break the harder it gets
I can only hold on to so much and I start to lose myself to the wind and to the sea below me until I am just a shell of the person I once was
In this world I am the only thing I have
What happens when I loose myself
Who will I become once everything that makes me... well me is gone
As the last piece of myself is claimed by the sea I fall to my knees
I have no one and nothing
The people who chip away at my existance see me as nothing more than a useless weakling
Suddenly the water at the bottom of this cliff looks inviting
But I resist the urge to jump
The urge to fall into the dark abyss that calls to me
I will overcome the fear of tomorrow
I stand taller and prouder than ever before, because I will prove to everyone that I am stronger than they make me out to be
I will rise for I am smarter than everyone makes me out to be
I will win this war called life and I will rebuild myself
I WILL be happy
