Some Days...

 

Some days, your stomach never really feels full

Some days, your heart never really feels full

No matter how much you try to feed it

Those wounds don't heal completely

Some days, you can't stop feeling tired for seemingly no reason

Some days, you can't stop finding reasons that drain you

It feels like everything's over, you just want to go to sleep

Then you wake up, hoping the new dawn drains less 

Some days, your heart aches, dull but persisting all day long

Some days, you can't really feel it, but you know it's there

The memory of the ache remains, draining you even more

You wonder how many tears you have shed and will soon

You also wonder if tomorrow will be any different than today

Maybe it will, maybe the day after, maybe next week, let's see

So you wipe away those tears and drift off to dream world

Maybe one day, you won't have to wipe away any more tears

So keep going, even on those days 

When you never feel full enough, 

And especially on those days. 

One day, it'll all be worth it. 

Maybe there'll be no more tears. 

Maybe those days will be long gone. 

Hold on to the aching hope that it will pass. 

It's probably far more powerful than you think.
