This is a day
I rise in pain
Agonizing fiercely through my brain 
I’ve tossed and turned all thru the night
Fighting my foe in a bloody fight

Being awake has no relief 
Like being robbed by a thief 
Who comes and goes all the time
I question it- did I commit a crime 

I finally reach a lesser phase 
And start to vision better days 
For l’m not alone in this brutal fight
The ones I love have me in sight

They give me the strength to continue my quest
So I can recapture peace 
and  rest
With their loving arms  they surround
my soul
And make me feel alive and whole 

But I know in my heart and in my brain 
I’m the one that must make the gain
To deal with the next round 
of this endless strife 
Continually seeking a better life

Because I’ve traveled this road before 
I know the way  and know the score
Use patience and knowledge 
from the past
With that effort make it last

So I finish my night and with a compromise 
Being more comfortable 
Being more  wise

I can face the days with hope again 
This pitiful night has come to an end
The pain has not vanished but has 
turned and to run 
To hide from me behind the sun

It will be back but I’ll be strong
To take the place where I belong
In a life filled with happiness 
with lesser pain 
My loved ones-cheering my 
new-found gain

          NEVER GIVE UP HOPE
