How Do You Do It?
To give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
How do you do it? Tell me how? How do you keep yourself from going over the edge? I know they say it's all in the head. But for the love of self, how do you do it? My heart beats like a hummingbird wings, chills run down my spine just trying to hold onto the last straw. O please, help me cause I don't know how long I can keep this up. Leave me alone. Please, stop tormenting me. Why? O why!
