Sometimes
It is just so hard to keep smiling
Even when you know you have reason’s to smile.
Sometimes
It is just so hard to keep from crying
Even when you know everything is okay.
Sometimes
It is just so hard
To keep on keeping on
And you feel like just…stopping.
Sometimes
Tears roll down your cheeks
And you can’t believe they’re from your eyes.
Sometimes
People ask if you’re okay
And you really can’t give them an answer.
Sometimes
It is so easy to push people away
And it is so hard to pull people closer.
Sometimes
All you need is a hug
But you feel like you’ll choke if anyone comes near.
Sometimes
You don’t know what is wrong
So you can’t fix the problem.
Sometimes
You just need a minute
And you don’t know what you need it for.
Sometimes
You feel like everyone hates you
Even though you can see the love on their faces.
Sometimes
You know you need to run
But you can’t think of exactly why.
Sometimes
Everything is just too heavy
But you can’t see the people waiting to help bear the load.
Sometimes
You just get so hungry
But all of the food makes you sick.
Sometimes
It’s all just too much
But you don’t exactly know what it all is.
Sometimes
You know you have so many blessings
But you just want to forget about them for a few moments.
Sometimes
You feel like drowning
But your feet are like concrete.
Sometimes
You just need to sleep
But your bed keeps moving further away.
Sometimes
You know you’re not alone
But you wish you were.

Sometimes
The love is just too big to see.
