Optimistic
Inherently given yet another chance
To take myself out of this trance
Taking each lonely minute out of the day
To think of just why I am this way
Trying to remember how it all began
And wonder why I am like I am
Writing down what comes to mind
Seems to be working out fine
But how long will this last?
How do I make this pass?
Too many questions I do not have answers to
It often makes me contemplate of you
Forever optimistic that the pain will end
While I sit here and wait for my wounds to mend
Grateful for your very existence
And how much you give assistance
To my weary soul and giving it strength
All too often at great lengths
