Poem: Day In and Day Out

Day in and day out, life is like a wind storm

Always blowing and unpredictable

Day in and day out

Life is like the passing of time

Never-ending and undeniable

As I sit here and ponder life

I can't help but feel scared

Because of so many unknowns

and sad for the many who agreed but nobody around them cared

There are many who feel the same

and understand

But sometimes feel like it is human nature to not empathize with our fellow man

In a world of high expectations

and so many variables It almost makes sense to have to rely on so many pills

You can't change life but you can change how you handle it

Take it as best you can without numbing yourself until you can't feel it

A drop of pain is better than a shot of shame

It only takes one shot to snowball

Meanwhile, you can mold a drop to make you stronger

While a shot can make you lose it all

Day in and day out

A shot, a pill, it all can have a hold on you

Day in and day out

Even so, you are strong enough to make it through
