Stronger (Pathway to peace)

Stronger

The time is coming up on 3 AM and those blues come creeping back
Anything I held inside that helped me fight them off just slipped away
Now I am sitting here questioning everything that has brought me to this place
The conclusion that no matter what I do, nothing will ever change

That is something that I have to accept and know I am worth nothing
When I do, I can feel some respite from the feeling of something clawing inside
But eventually, it just sends me spiralling into the areas too well-known
That pit of despair that always seems to want to welcome me home

The courage inside me fades to nothing as I allow the demons inside to speak
Those voices whispering to me the truth of my worth to this world
Letting that fuel me as it pushes me deeper and deeper into that darkness
I know I must be stronger to find a way forward and this life of pain
