Painting With Words

Stay Strong

People tell me

It's only a phase.

But that is a load of crap

and a lie that is rudely glazed.

I know what they are like

With their words and anger and pain.

But I know how it feels

When you realize nothing will be the same.

I suppose I just want to say

Even though I'm a stranger with a pencil,

I'm here for all of you,

To make sure you are okay.

So, put down the lighter

Put down the razor

And just for a second remember

Someone out there cares.

More people than you know

Love you more than they show,

I know it's hard to accept

I've been through the same thing,

And that's why I need to say

Stay Strong, for one more day.
