I'm not that strong after all.

I put my hand on my chest, I feel my heart beat so strong.
With all the smoke I breathe everyday I know my lungs are almost gone.
I sip away my fears tonight with the glass I won't put down.
Even if I try to scream I barely can make a sound.
Now I'm standing at the edge, ready for a fall.
& I realise they were right..
I'm not that strong after all...

You are strong, you just need to believe in yourself! I've been there, and now I am stronger than ever because I finally have faith in myself. You just need to put down the bottle and pick up something that you enjoy doing, that you can enjoy with out needing drugs or alcohol. You need to love yourself, and never give up. YOU CAN DO IT!

When the reality hits..when you come to know that you aren't as strong as you would have liked it hurts indeed.. I have been there.. So if you have written this about yourself, I know and understand how you feel.. But just know that we are the ones who have to make an effort.. No one else can and will.. You portray the emotions nicely!

I wish it were easy as said to make an effort, but sadl'y it drains you everyday .
