One day at a time.

Days are long and hard, 

But still they say take it one day at a time.

My depression is on the rise,

making my emotions lie. 

How can I take it one day at a time?


See here, my anxiety is a weakness that makes me worry.

It makes me think things are in a hurry,

But still they say everything is okay.


One day at a time.

Days make me feel like a victim of life,

But still they say take it one day at a time.

My pain, sorrow and frustration 

Makes me want to die.

How can I take it one day at a time?


See here, every day is a struggle that makes me hustle.

It makes me think things might get rustled.

But still they say everything is okay.


One day at a time.

Days are shorter for you than for me,

With my depression and anxiety.

But still you say take it one day at a time.

How can I take it one day at a time?


See here, you have it all easy.

I feel like no one needs or even sees me.

Nothing seems to ever please me.

But still you say take it one day at a time.

How can I?
