Hope
I want to live
Praying for any reason
not to make tonight
my very last one
Sweet joys, fond memories
from times long ago
They make me cry
for a life forever lost
I want to breathe
All I do is choke
Past loss, present pain
I see no future
If I can feel
am I still alive?

I'm trying. I'm looking for reasons to stay alive. It's the best I can do right now. (and yes I have all the support I can possibly have)

Dear I,
Your poem rings true for me in many similar thoughts. Your title provides the reason there’s a new day. Things change on a dime. Good, bad or indifferent. I’m waiting for the good one. I think your poem is extraordinarily raw and honest and oh so relatable.
Much appreciated. H🌷

Writing a relatable poem, giving hope to others, is definitely a sign that you are alive, and making a contribution.
