10-1-07 Fighting

Where?
Where did you come from?
I never felt you lingering
I never felt you waiting
but when you came
I felt you

I felt you envelop my being
I felt you take over my heart
I felt you drain the life from me

I felt the overwhelming sadness
I felt the disappointment
I felt the shame
I will always feel the hurt

When?
When will you leave?
When will I let go?

Somewhere inside of me you linger
Somewhere inside of me you will always hide
Somewhere

One day your sadness will leave me
One day I won't want to die
One day it will be okay

Until then I will fight
I will fight the lingering
I will fight the sadness
I will fight the hurt

I will fight because one day it will be okay
