The Struggle
Everyday she walks in a daze
Going through her life like maze,
Looking forward to the bright morning skies
hoping there will be no lies,
Chances are there will be something new
Like getting over what you've been through,
Always wears a smile on her face
Like she lives in some other place,
Sitting on the warm beach sand
Wondering how her life is planned,
Staring at her reflection in the water
She sees what God has brought her,
What you are is what you breathe
Never give up, always believe,
Go ahead and waste the hours
Just by picking many flowers,
Walking through the crowds just to see
How many people can really be,
Watching the time pass her by
She only wishes she could fly,
But everyday she walks in a daze
Going through her life like maze,
One day hoping to find herself
Not like one of those books on the shelf
