There Is Always A Way

by CJ Maleney   May 8, 2018


I have seen my dreams and aspirations fail.
I've seen my hopes dashed on the rocks.
I've witnessed all I held dear float away
And I've been left to pay the cost.

Downtrodden, depressed and subdued,
I continued with the fight.
When I felt like giving up and quitting,
There has always been a light.

It has never been holy or angelic,
That light is held within.
Should I quit, give up and fade?
No! Because for me this is a sin.

We were not given life with guarantees,
We are not guaranteed to grow old.
The measure of your existence
Should be stories that are told.

When life bites, rips and tears us apart
There is a thing I always say.
When Sometimes things seem impossible,

!There will always be a way!

    This is an inspiring piece. I believe that this way of thinking makes the difference between living a happy life or not. It is something I tell myself constantly because the alternative is unacceptable" Well done on putting such positivity out there to share in such a wonderful poetic form. Milly x

      Hey up Mills.

      A mate of mine once said "once you admit that there is a problem, you are already half way to solving it".
