During those trying times I’ll let you know
Sadness came to settle upon my brow
In those desperate times I fell
Deep down into the darkest well
It’s taken me many many years
To overcome all my pain, my shame
But up into daylight again I came
Dragging myself through terrible pain
To finally reach this finish line
I found myself collecting useless things
Hoping to deny that painful sting
My collections grew by and by
Until I was lost within those piles
Trying to stem that miserable tide
It took me years to realise why pain
Was causing all that sadness
Deep inside my heart and soul
Those things in life I could not control
Were dragging me deeper still
Surrounded, I built that wall higher still
Attempting to stem that mighty tide
For deep within, my inner crying child
Was drowning, pulled by that undertow
So lost within, none could truly know
Now as I am able to look deep within
Now that I am happy within this skin
I can finally see how lost my life had been
How I hid behind those useless things
Seeking solace from those useless things
