Today, Tomorrow and Forever

TODAY, TOMORROW AND FOREVER

I’m in a downward spiral
Feeling the darkness settle around me
Like a thick Mordor fog
I try to fight it

Armed with my friends and good wishes
However, I feel the sinking once again
My spirit cannot be buoyed
I want to swim, I want to live

But the mental fights the physical
Weighing my limbs with fatigue
Sometimes the fight is more strenuous
Than giving up

I feel the need to surrender to the tide of bad feelings,
And float away from this sea of pain.
I realize that exhaustion clouds my thinking
Armed with nothing more than determination,
I make it through one more day

Wondering how much longer
I can continue to win this fight
Today I will,
Tomorrow maybe,
Forever hopefully
