When I was young my dad would say
Come on son let's go out and play
No matter how hard I try
No matter how many tears I cry
No matter how many years go by
I still can't say goodbye

Now, that you may be listening to my pleas to "carry-on" with life, "HOW DO YOU DO THIS?"
Because the pain - your pain:
- Is beating you down, and hammering you to the floor - helpless, scared, and not feeling too good - and, your entire soul has vanished to be replaced with something foreign that makes you feel "numb" inside; and
- Just won't stop;
- paints the world in black, everything is black - dark;
And, on and on - just make it STOP! PLEASE, JUST HELP ME AND MAKE THIS FEELING STOP, NOW! BECAUSE I'M SCARED OF WHAT I MIGHT DO! SOMEONE, PLEASE!!
No, it's not Jesus, or religion, or anything else that is outside of the center of your soul (but, I do love him, adore him, and admire him for his goodness).
No, my friend - it will start with "you." How will "you" survive? These are the answers that you need from me, now. And, I know this. And, I will not leave you hanging - wondering “HOW?”
