Mental And Physical Strife
The battle rages inside of her soul as her head hangs down
Sword in hand with her strength weakening as she starts to drown
Life seems pointless but she still holds so much love for the ones she holds dear
A blacked out tunnel with a coldness that hovers and no ending near
She prays throughout every minute of her struggle and she prays for her love to keep the faith
Hoping everything that they are fighting will be worth the wait
Her blood runs cold as her body feels old with riddled health and no releif
Thought to have no self-control having treatment withheld as she drops to her knees
Please, dear Lord, give me a sign that my suffering has a reason and that I'm strong enough to make it through
My only hope now is my heart and soul and the belief that I I'm trying to have in you
I will continue to fight for everything that I love so much even when I feel like giving up and bowing out
Please God give me strength for my soul is cracking open as it fills with doubt
This warrior woman is down to her last hope as her world falls apart
But one things for sure love still beats within her broken heart

Tomorrow Tomorrow shall be a beautiful day.. Differs from the day that just past away.. It feels the soul strongly to get up fairly.. Tom...
