Array ( [sid] => 81694 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Tomorrow [time] => 2005-01-27 09:07:15 [hometext] => Family isn't always what it's supposed to be... [bodytext] => Tomorrow…another day and yet I’m so afraid….
Will they put me down again or will they try to refrain?
I don’t know if I can handle it, don’t know if I’m willing to try
I hope I don’t end up with thoughts of suicide
I’ve gotten this far, made myself strong
I hope I don’t get weak, in that family I don’t belong
I’ve taken their crap, heard what they’ve had to say
Made me grow weaker and so then I prayed
I prayed to the Lord, prayed so very hard
He helped to me to make it, make it this far
If tomorrow is filled with more angry words
Will I handle it all, will I again be cursed

I don’t want to be weak, don’t want to be controlled
Don’t want to take it, don’t want them at all

Been alone these past couple of weeks…
Learned how to be strong so I could defeat
Defeat these people who want to hurt me
Torment my soul and make me weak
The Lord has given me the strength and power
To withstand their torments throughout the hours
I have taken it all, given it to him
He held me in his arms and forgave my sins
I promised not to give up, and he promised to give me strength
I must keep my promise, he doesn’t negotiate
I promised to try till my last waking hour
Not to stand on the sidelines and let them strip me of my power
The power that he gave me that gets me through the days
The power within that’s helped me in many ways

I will not let them take me and drag me to my knees
I will not make them get the best of me
I will be strong and handle what may come
I will not let them take my happiness not even some
I will defeat all who takes me on
I will not fall I will not be the one

I’m not the almighty, not even close
But I will not let them cause me more remorse
About being myself independent and all
I will not let them see my tears fall
I know it will hurt I know it won’t be easy
But I will handle it, they will never get the best of me

I am a good person with a heart of gold
I am better, better than them all
So now matter what you have to say to me
Remember I’m stronger
No longer the lil’ weakling
I will get through tomorrow and everyday
I will not let my family take everything away
My family is far from what it’s supposed to be
My family makes me live in misery
I know that it sounds too bad to be true
If you think I’m exaggerating walk in my shoes

I hope I don’t end up with thoughts of suicide
I’ve gotten this far, made myself strong
I hope I don’t get weak, in that family I don’t belong

Don’t want to take it, don’t want them at all

Good for you. You are strong.
But, I think you made you strong.
I can relate to this. I never quite feel at home with my family and I have wished to get away for a long time.

Great write,
*hugs* Phil xxx
