Today is a Struggle

For those days where nothing seems to go right and the only thing you can do is sing out your frustration till you feel the heaviness slide away

Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more
Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more

I’m so sick and tired
Of people right now
They never understand me
And twist my words somehow
I’m always treading
On their tender parts
They’re always shredding
Juicy pieces of my heart

Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more
Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more

I’m tired of my life
Always being on repeat
Doing over and over
The same things endlessly
Whatever I do is
Placed to one side
So that someone who’s better
Can bask in my light

Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more
Today is a struggle
Like the day before and
Tomorrow I know
I will struggle through some more

Stoneacorn (Xander)

These songs, poems, and reflections offer an insight to who I am and are my autobiography. I am a poet, a song writer, a witch. I dance my Wyrd in my practice; in how I choose to live; in who I share my moments with. My heart is black, white, grey and purple like the stone beneath my feet, the bones of Grandfather Green. My eyes contain her Stars and her deep dark well as I straddle the hedge and listen to the winds. My form is the tree that connects all realms, clothed in holly and oak. I am Stoneacorn
