There Are Days

There are days
I wish
For a sign
That I’m living
This messy life
Right

Days

When a kind word
Would go
A long way

Days

When it would help
To look beside me
And see someone
Stumbling right alongside

But I could wait

My whole life
For these things

So I will take

Small successes
As a sign

I will tell myself

Good job
Now and then

I will be

My own company

I will keep going

Until I can’t
Go anymore
