Welcome

If you are reading this, my friend

Then I welcome you

For you are about to start a journey

One that will change you

I will warn you though

That it will not be easy

At times you’ll feel great

Not having a care in the world

You won’t want the feeling to go

But it won’t last

There will be time of pain

Feelings of grief will be overwhelming

Anger will consume you at times

You’ll think there’s nothing left

So you’ll try to end it all

Hoping to ease the ache

Though you want to

You won’t be able to go through

Some people won’t make it to the end

Because this journey is so hard

It takes its toll

But if you keep going

And not stop giving your all

You’ll make it

I should know

Since this is my life
