The darkness creeps in
I feel as though I'm spiraling in mid-air
My thoughts run rampant
There is no clarity to be found anywhere
My mind is a mess indecisiveness once again is brought to the top
I can't make a good decision if my life depended on it when will this stop
I grow hopeless as the darkness creeps in it takes a toll on my soul
The thoughts of me wanting to escape and just let everything go
Because life's just too hard to continue to endure
But then I am reminded although my children are grown
They still need a mother to help them to make it thru
Although every day life feels extremely tough I push on
I have no choice I have to show my kids I must go on
They need to see that I get up after I fall down
