My Serenity

For so long I've been deprived of sleep

my days had turn into a blur,

dazed by everything I once knew,

I feel like I've fallen far too deep (I'm lost).

The voices in my head grows louder

telling me to give into the pain

the longer I stand still

my body sways to the rhythm

of their negative waves.

The longer I decide stay here,

the more I feel I'm going insane.

take a breath and count to three,

open your eyes, what do you see?

Can you hear me calling out for help

I've fought for so long to defeat this war,

I cannot longer see what may lie ahead,

my future seems to been erased,

I've got to keep fighting, to see what lies ahead.

I stand still trying to figure my life out

but the longer I debate which road to take,

I feel the air thickening, slowly suffocating me

unable to breathe,

I can't keep living like this,

I don't want to given in.

The longer I decide stay here,

the more I feel I'm going insane.

take a breath and count to three,

open your eyes, what do you see?

Years and years passed me by,

I now know and realize,

I cannot allow anyone to influence my choices in life,

only I can decide what is right for me to survive,

I've got to mend my heart,

I've got to heal my soul,
I've got to wake up
to see the world with different eyes,
only then I'll find my path in this life,

only then I'll be the person I always meant to become.

Can you hear me calling out for help

I've fought for so long to defeat this war,

I cannot longer see what may lie ahead,

my future seems to been erased,

I've got to keep fighting, to see what lies ahead.

I've got to open my eyes and realize

I have to live for myself and no one else,

finding the path of self-healing 

will allow to find my serenity,

a piece of mind I've lost within the storm,

I've got to find my path in this life.

I'll never give up!
