"Slings and Arrows"

What’s stopping you
From leaving behind
All the things that hurt
Your body and mind?

What’s stopping you
From feeling complete?
Why you feel alone
Or out of beat?

There is a sadness,
Pangs of grief,
Crippling your heart
Beyond belief.

And there is a pain
That never goes away,
No matter what
People say.

But you can armor up,
It’s never too late
To close the gate
To ask for backup,
And to evade
The slings and arrows
Of outrageous fate.

I know that there is
Sadness and grief,
Crippling your heart
Beyond belief.

But like the clouds that bring the rain,
All the torment, all of the pain
Will pass through the sky of your heart,
You cry and cry, but then you start

Armoring up again
Closing the gate
Asking for backup,
Cheating fate.

Yes, you can armor up,
It’s never too late
To close the gate
To ask for backup
To evade
The slings and arrows
Of outrageous fate.
