Some random thoughts and what's goin' on in my boring life. Comments are welcomed.
Poem
Wow, I thought people read this. I guess I was wrong. =P

Anyway, I'll keep writing. The poem I wrote today.....


"What do you do
when you're feeling low
no one to talk to
they don't seem to listen

Should it matter to them
when it's your life
not theirs

You've tried all your options
used every lifeline
until it seems hopeless

Yet you go on
you find the strength
something they couldn't see

Then you forget
forcing out old memories
and keep living your life

Live like you've never been hurt
and wear that smile."

(Sunday 2 September 07; 2105)




I've been feeling a bit down recently, so I started writing. Sadly, I started writing after watching Flicka. Bad choice! D: (That movie made me cry. Horses and overcoming crazy s**t. I can sorta relate.) So I went into my room and turned on the radio. What song do I hear? "If you're going through hell" by Rodney Atkins. A song about being down and then overcoming it. ;O So I had to make it my song of the week. >.<


If you're going through hell

Rodney Atkins
Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Says I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do

You step off the straight and narrow
And you don't know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you
That's when you learn the truth

If you're going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there

Well I been deep down in that darkness
I been down to my last match
Felt a hundred different demons
Breathing fire down my back
And I knew that if I stumbled
I'd fall right into the trap that they were laying, yeah

But the good news
Is there's angels everywhere out on the street
Holding out a hand to pull you back up on your feet
The one's that you've been dragginig for so long
You're on your knees
You maight as well be praying
Guess what I'm saying

If your going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, If you're going through hell
Keep on moving, face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows your there

If you're going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If your scared don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows your there

Yeah, If your going through hell
Keep on moving, face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, you might get out
Before the devil even knows your there.
