Rock Bottom

I don’t know how long 

I can hold on; 

I feel I’ve hunched over

With too much weight on my shoulder; 

Life seems to fall apart, but I hold her.

I walk this path alone

And I’m lost and cold

There’s so much fear in me though 

That I’m not afraid anymore! 

I’m fighting with myself, 

There’s this voice at the back of my head 

Which gets me through this hell

Which fights the tears I shred.

Because, being at the rock bottom,

The only way is up!
