selfstruggles

I'm sitting here
Alone in the dark
You've made it very clear
That you're not that far
Away, such a tough decision
These voices are
Telling me to go there, it's freedom
The pain will be all gone
I'm holding on
Barely breathing
Just enough to stay alive
And just so you know
I'm not going down without a fight
I'm Holding On
I Came Into This World
Kicking And Screaming
Blood From Head To Toe
And I'll Leave, Doing Just The Same
I'll Go Down Swinging
My mind's nothing but a prison
Can't you hear the yard-birds singing
Oh, they're so, so loud
They say they love me
But I know better now
My mind is swaying, back and forth
Nope I ain't listening, to you anymore
I'm Holding On
I Came Into This World
Kicking And Screaming
Blood From Head To Toe
And I'll Leave, Doing Just The Same
I'll Go Down Swinging
I'm holding on
Barely breathing
Just enough to stay alive
And just so you know
I'm not going down without a fight
And I'm still
Sitting here, alone in the dark.

Thank you for writing this tribute to endurance!
I shared this with my sister today (she is very ill) as a theme song to her struggle with disease. In hopes that she resolves to follow your lead and not give up without a fight! And, and as I certainly did…the nurses loved your poem!
