Let Me Be
Let me be alone to deal with it all,
No extra stresses needed.
Give me a reason to be around,
Although my trust and love are almost gone.
I have no where to go and be myself,
My man doesn't love me enough for truth.
And that's all I ever wanted,
Wanted from myself you.
Let me be strong woman I once was,
I maybe denying myself that possibility.
Situations took place without my control,
And love conquered my heart and gave me hope.
Let me be hopeful in my decisions,
My heart and mind are at war over that one.
I know not where to turn for that strength,
Turning within is not so easy.
I can only be one minute at a time,
And knowing what or how to be is tricky.
Overwhelming living in my world of struggle,
Pointing me in many different directions.
All I ask is to be and live in a secure world,
Even if it only consist of my reality.
I will get back out there to face myself,
The strength to do continues to build.
Being sometimes has no definition,
Enjoyment of a little life at times kicks in.
I have not been able to release myself,
Release myself of the pain of letting myself be.
A changed life and new lessons learned,
Knowing that tomorrow may never come.
So, when life gets me down and out,
Learning and being who I once was again in time.
Being will come easier with each second,
And I cherish the thought of just letting myself be.
Just being without definition and loving it,
The ultimate goal of my current reality.
