Circle of Warriors

The storms are coming in 

and the rain is coming down

and all around me

the ground in turning brown.

 

So much pain all around

my little circle of friends

so much pain so we wait

just for it to end.

 

Her long-time companion

took my sister down

Depression is a bitch

as she and I have found.

 

"I can't do this"

"Everyone would be better off if I were dead"

"I wish I had never been born"

these are thoughts that play

 

and play

 

and play

 

in your head.

 

The storms are coming in

and the rain is coming down

and all around me

the ground is turning brown. 

 

So many warriors I know

that fight for she and I 

and though she failed this time 

 

to do what can't be undone

I know that it will come again

and again she will try.

 

So much pain all around 

my little circle of friends

so much pain so we wait 

just for it to end. 

 

Everyone I know

fighting their own fight

everyone I know

trying with all their might

 

just keep pushing

just keep walking

 

smile and you'll see

that sooner or later

or maybe eventually

 

the smile that you faked

has become true. 

 

The storms are coming in

and the rain is coming down

and all around me

the ground is turning brown.

This is in serious need of editing but I'm doped up on cold medicine and needed to push this out.

Hope

you feel better. I liked the opening cadence - mello and melodic. - allets -
