Sometimes it’s hard

To think of a reason

But today I am here

In spite of it all. 

And when words are not enough

And I don’t know what to do

I just smile

And keep on going. 

That is the faith

That all the good must keep

As we trudge through another day

On our way to the end.

Many are angry

And many are demoralized

So they try to escape

Any way they can. 

Numbing their brains

To forget who they are

And killing themselves

To avoid the pain. 

But there is nothing better

Than to love anyway

And there is nothing richer

Than to enjoy what you have.

You will see them

And they will see you

But even though

They wish you death

Smile and fight.    

Smile and fight

And never give an inch

Peaceful and defiant

Again and again.
