Let It Be

I'm very stressed and upset about everything in my life right now. I know I just need to let it be, but it's so hard.

I sit in the window, watching raindrops fall.

Wondering about my life, thinking about it all.

Can I make it through school, pay to learn?

For me will love ever once again burn?

Will I ever stop aching to see his smile again?

Will my misfortune ever halt? Will I ever win?

Is there someone out there, genuine and true?

Someone who means it when he tells me "I love you?"

One drop slides down the glass, leaving a dewey trail.

I feel like I'm sliding too, like I'm destined to fail.

But I will not give up, never, I'll fight to the end.

Defeat, no that's not me, I'll find a way to win.

I'll get a second job to pay for my school.

I'll ignore his remarks, won't be played for a fool.

There's got to be someone right, who loves me for me.

So I'll try to have faith, to just let it be.

And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be. For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see, there will be an answer. let it be.

Answers are sure to be forthcoming for someone who asks the questions so beautifully.

Isn't it weird how the sky seems to mock our feelings, especially on days we feel down. It is comforting though knowing we are not alone n our feelings and s/t the sky feels the exact same way.

Sometimes we just need to keep a little faith in us love, not easy but it helps :) This is lovely, heart wrenching and well worded, heart shown here :) xx

Yeah.. I learned that, too . Let it be.. Because things happen for a reason. And you came up with a wonderful poem for a reason.;)

Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, over steep ways to the stars, fulfills itself.

Great poem! Thanks for sharing.
