My Sacrifice
I have clarity
Finally I can see
I understand who I am
I can accept me
It’s taken awhile
But finally I’m here
Realise what’s important
Understand the power of those I keep dear
I’ve got issues
But I’m ok
I’m no longer confused
I know I can get through each day
Troubled but satisfied
I take on sacrifices
Put myself at risk
I have plans and devices
It’s very lonely
But its worthwhile
Not an easy challenge
To try and make everyone smile
Don’t want to hurt
Put everyone else first
Hate violence and hold in anger
I’m strong enough not to burst
I don’t want to be a martyr
I just hate seeing pain
From bring others joy
I have so much to gain
It hurts me
Holding everything back
But this is my chance to leave an impression
I won’t sway from this track
The greater good
That’s what’s critical
Put my issues aside
Forget what’s political
It’s my choice
I pay the price
No one else to blame for this loneliness
It’s my sacrifice
