Victim of the mind
by
Sherene Delgado
You’re the world’s victim
Or so you feel
You add another tear to the ocean each day
Life is not worth living to you
You ask "why am I here"
But do you really know what pain is?
It’s the feeling of loneliness when no one cares,
Not because you feel no one cares or tried to.
It’s to cry the tears of sadness of wasted years gone by
Thinking about all the wasted time you could have been happy,
But wouldn’t.
You dwell on what you’re not willing to change.
LIFE IS NOT PERFECT.
THE WORLD IS NOT PERFECT.
Each day the heart hurts from new wounds
Each day you make a decision to stand or die
To stand, is to fight for another day
Another chance to make a change.
To die, is to admit defeat,
To give up your right to hope.
Don’t lie down.
You’re stronger than you know
The world has more than you know.
Stand and make a change for the world
And for yourself.
