Float off in the distance
That’s what I’d like to do
Keep on floating, soaring , sailing
Until I have found you
Nothing here is normal
I can barely bear to smile
If only I could talk to you
For just a little while
I wonder what it’s like
I wonder if you hear
I wish I had the answers
To know if you are near
Sometimes my thoughts
They catch the wind, and start to sail away
I have to keep them grounded
Just for one more day
One foot in front the other
One small step at a time
Carrying on is what we do
Until we are healing fine
I know you’d say be stronger
You thought that was what I do
“You’ve always been the strong one”
But not now I’ve lost you
Without you I am broken
Nothing holds me steady
I guess it will come back to me
But for now, I’m just not ready

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
