Remember When?
Remember when I was younger, and we colored eggs every Easter
Remember when I was younger, and we hung the stockings together on every Christmas Eve
Remember when I was younger, and we went to church every Sunday
Remember when I was younger, and I used to smile so brightly
Remember when I was younger, and I was carefree and things were different
Well, now those are just memories
Now, times have changed
I am hurt, I am lost, I am afraid
I am confused, I am nervous, I feel alone
There is a quote "You were given this life, because you were strong enough to live it"
Well, someone made a mistake
Obviously, I am not strong enough to live it
People have it way worse
I have clothes, food, shelter
I even have people who love me and care about me
So why do I feel the way I do?
I feel like this world wasn't meant for me
People have tried to help
People have helped
Every word I get, all the times people have showed me how much they care, and don't want me to hurt myself, helps
They have saved me from completely losing myself
