Fight

Why must I fight
Everyday can be one
I fight to work
I fight to keep from crying
I fight to sleep
I fight to be strong
and I make mistakes
Which are being lessened with time
Strength is something I need
My future is less common
I know that I need to be strong
That my place is to help this world
My purpose in life
Defined to me by God
But can't he let me have what I want
Why do I have to learn how much love is worth
And haven't I learned it after all these years
I am alone
And I crave so desperately for a friend
Hasn't the sea washed me clean enough for life to grow
I feel so old
I know it is far from over
And that to fulfill my purpose I must be strong
Its worth it
And its all I have left
But God
Can't I please have a friend
Please hear my cry
I need some love in my life
Someone to trust
It is not my place
But it seems as though I have earned the right
God I am tired of the fight
