Some days I have nothing to say
Some days I have no strength
To push on
Some days I’m confused
Some days I feel left behind
So many of my friends
Seem far ahead
Some days I find so many things around me
Annoying
Some days I wonder
If I can make it
Till the end
Some days I have a line-up
Of exciting things
To look forward to
Some days it seems
I am at a standstill
No motion in my life
Some days I wish I were dead
Some days I feel grateful to be alive
Some days I feel I have come to the end
Of my journey
Some days I feel I’m now waking up
To my true life purpose
And I wonder,
Why it took me so long
To start such an important task
Some days I feel I have mastered a field
Then I discover there are so many heights
Still ahead
And I wonder
If a lifetime will be enough
To be all that there is to be
Some days I wonder what all this life is about
Some days I console myself
That it will all turn out well
Sometimes I fear we will all dispear one day
And be forgotten
And everything we hold dear now
Will all be dust
It’s a thought that humbles
And readjusts perspectives
On what really matters
Some days I’m courageous
Some days I fear I will fall
And there will be no rising
Come what may
I choose to live
I choose life
Despite its uncertainties
