Another Step Forward

Another night has come and gone,
Before the shadows are laid upon my soul,
Cast by the darkest of rain clouds,
Drowning me in my own thoughts.
Enhancing all the pain this life is in,
Fear will eventually get the best of it all,
Grasping my heart; never letting go.
Harmonizing in my own songs,
Is never enough to earase it all.
Just one more day to get through; I say,
Keeps me going when things get rough,
Like a motivational speaker; only inside my head.
Many times I doubt myself,
Nightfall comes sooner than before,
Only making things harder.
Pressing forward; I must live on,
Quiting will never get me anywhere.
Resisting the urges of negativity,
Saving myself from the emotions,
Turns out to be sweeter than ever imagined.
Uniting myself with that light again,
Venturing into the great unknown,
Will only make me that much stronger.
Xing out my past; staying in the right direction,
Yearning to learn more for the future,
Zero hurt, zero wounds; a new begining, a fresh start...
