You Don't Have to Be Alone | Su***de Prevention Month
You don't have to be alone,
When the world feels cold,
Even when the words won't come,
And your heart feels tired and numb.
I know you carry silent fights,
Hidden beneath other people's sights,
You may feel at fright,
But always remember, you don't have to be alone to face that fright and strengthen your might.
It's okay to reach,
It's okay to speak,
To let someone hear
The words you can't keep.
A simple "are you okay"
Can brighten someone's day.
You don't always have to be strong,
You don't have to pretend nothing's wrong.
Even the strongest needs someone near,
Someone to listen, and to hear.
And, if you're ever tired, it's okay to rest,
Slow down and take a breath,
Release what weighs your chest,
Ang give yourself the time to feel your best.
Resting doesn't mean you're giving up,
Sometimes it means giving yourself some time to continue,
To gather your strength when times get tough,
And rise again when you've had enough.
You may move slowly,
you may take one step at a time,
But even the smallest step is a progress in your life,
For, every step you take is a reason to keep going.
So if it's hard to face,
Take your time, move your pace,
Let someone stand beside you,
And let someone help you through.
Because, you don't have to carry
Every burden on your own.
Sometimes we need someone to remind us that:
"You don't have to be alone."
