More than just sad and blue
Is what your heart feel
For quite some time
You've been in low
This i know.
I feel it too.
It's a struggle
To feel otherwise
Being far from the loved ones you care
A feeling too hard to bear.
In your solitude,
Myriads of emotions
Come rushing in magnitude.
No matter how hard you try,
I could still hear
Your heart's cry.
At dawn,
You wake up with a start.
Disoriented, without knowing why
Tears fell down your face
Damping your pillowcase.
This i know.
I had been through this too.
At night,
You would hear the pain
Your body is shouting
Bones creaking, joints complaining.
From the days' labor
That seems never ending.
This i know.
I experience it too.
The idea of quitting
Has been on your mind.
What a thought.
So tempting.
This i know.
I thought of it too.
Once in a while,
You change your mind.
Tried to recall
The reasons behind
Reasons their depths only you know
Why you left your own
Stayed in this place
Unknown.
This i know.
I have done this too.
But...
Have you ever tried
To break free
From the gloomy thought
The negative feelings
To your heart it  envoked?
Look at the other way
See things differently.
Think of your family.
To them you're the hero
Their superman,
Their wonder woman
Whom they look up to.
Wouldn't this thought
be enough
To make you glad
Erase on your face the gloom
And make a smile bloom.
Wouldn't this thought
be enough
To ease the aches and pains
Your body has gain.
Wouldn't this thought
be enough
To keep you going
To continue the battle
And never surrender.
You are the hero, must you quit?
I know you feel this
So do i, and the others too.
