Another Day

I try to be happy,
But life gets me down.
Even though I have a smile glued to my face,
It eventually turns into a frown.

Life can show no mercy,
And continue to throw punches at me.
Life can't get easy.
Life can't set you free.

These chains hold my body inside.
To contain the person within.
But these chains start to rip,
And seep into the the skin.

I'm chained to life,
With upset scars.
Locked inside,
Like butterflies in seal-tight jars.

Thrive to fly.
Bound to fly away.
Praying to God
To give me another day.

Wishing for a chance.
Hoping for love.
Wanting simple guidance,
Only granted from above.

Lord, I pray to you.
To help me find a way.
To show me a new path.
To give me another day.
