Against It All

 

“Against It All”

Do you wrestle?
Shadows of the past.
Something your heart said always?
Something you believed would last?

Do you ever get stuck?
Between today and what might have been?
In the harsh reality,
And memories of then?

But hearts are honest,
And they do not lie.
The struggle between today.
And the tear in your eye.

Are hearts honest?
Do you wrestle with the ever since?
Battle against the knowing,
Of everything that makes no sense?

I struggle,
I walk, I crawl.
Never understanding,
Against it all.

I struggle,
Try to stand tall.
Hoping for an end.
To the fall.

Against it all.
