I'm a Struggle

*My childhood was quite complicated. I was born 26 weeks premature, and the consistent operations caused me to become legally blind in my right eye. I struggled severely as a child, but now I've come to embrace my misfortunes and use them to my advantage.
This song is personal. I hope you enjoy.*


Born on an early premises
My life, I fight my nemesis
I struggle so hard just to breathe
Try to sustain the life in me
I feel, I feel consistent pain
The venom they try hard to drain
I fight, struggle to stay awake
So I could live another day

Imperfections cloud my own mind
They say I’ll be better in time
Its hard when you can’t see what’s right
Blinded by the blackness of light
I only view from the left side
I’ve always tried to run and hide
But now its simply my own life
That I alone will shape in time

Woe is me
What do I see?
I’ve found love
Inside myself
I am blind
Half-hearted time
Take away
I’m child’s play

Wow, this is heartfelt, meaningful and interesting, I really like the line "Blinded by the blackness of light", keep it up, I'm happy for you to embrace your misfortunes

Thank you very much and I'm glad that you have enjoyed what I wrote. You could always check out the other songs that I have written if you choose to. They are all posted and open to review

I think it's awesome! I really do. you've taken things from your own life and put them in song form and it shone totally!! I can see it being piano based or guitar x

Aw.. thanks Nicole
I'm actually in the process of planning to create my songs well, into actual songs haha.
I'm leaning more towards an acoustic guitar "MTV Unplugged" kind of feel, that show was basically my inspiration to create all my lyrics.
I'm glad you've enjoyed it
