I see the pain in your eyes,
The sorrow that you try to hide,
The weight you carry on your chest,
The demons that won't let you rest.
I cannot know what you're going through,
Or the despair that you suffer anew;
But I can see the hurt that you bear,
The loneliness that you can't seem to share.
Day by day, your spirit fades
As if life has lost its shades,
And nothing seems to bring relief,
No matter how much you try to believe.
I beg of you to hold on,
And find the strength to carry on;
There's hope beyond the darkest night,
And joy can come with the morning light.
You are loved, you are needed,
Don't let the darkness deceive you;
The world is better with you here,
And the ones who care are always near.
Hold fast to the hope that tomorrow brings,
And know that you are more than your sufferings;
Let your heart be light, let your soul shine,
And say to the darkness: 'Not this time'.
