When you've exhuasted all your other options
When you're hurt and tired and broken and bleeding,
I'll comfort you
When the night has fallen
But the stars are gone,
I'll stay by your side
When the demons come,
Trying to take you as their own,
I'll fight them off if your strength fades
When the world leaves you crashing down on your knees
And you want to give up,
I'll tell you
That I need you
And that it won't be the same,
Not without you
So please stay
Because I can tell you this:
I know how it feels
To feel left out
As if no one cares
But I promise you this
Someone does care
More than you can possibly know
And if you need a reminder to go on,
Remember this:
Though it's dark now,
It won't be forever
Keep your happy memories close,
Keep the light close.
And if you need me to,
I will be there, beside you, in the darkest nights
And the most fearful days.
Know this:
No matter what happens,
You are not alone.
That, I can promise.
So.
Please.
Keep going.
You are strong enough and talented enough.
And you have made it this far,
Though it may have exhausted you,
You are here.
And that's all that matters.
So long as your heart still beats, there is still hope for you.
Don't surrender it.
No matter what happens.
