Break Through

All my life I’ve been afraid
Afraid to live, afraid to love and afraid to lose
I was afraid of making choices
Afraid of the consequences of what I’d chose
I hid those fears from everyone around
Let them believe I had it together
But the weight of my lies kept pushing me down
Until I thought I was lost forever
The darkness was overwhelming
I always felt so alone
As I experienced the treachery of life’s blows
I suffered the worse pain I’ve ever known
I finally got to a point of no return
The misery was much more than I could bear
I had to find a way out of the darkness
I wouldn’t survive it if continued to dwell there
There was no light shining in the darkness
I had to fight my way out blind
The struggle to find my way out
Has taken a toll on my mind
It’s taking longer than I expected
But I know now what I must to do
It’s going to take all that I’ve got
But I will eventually break through
