Today Is Just Another Day: Poem by Dwayne Bailey

Today is just another day, of the horror movie I call my life;
I feel I've let things slip away, I feel buried by daily strife.
I find myself lost in thoughts, unable to take a breath;
Today is just another day, I'm one step closer to death.

I wish that I could find some peace, and get some needed rest;
Instead I feel uneasy inside, like my life is one big test.
I try to turn to heartfelt prayer, and open up my heart;
Today is just another day, deeper I sank from the start.

What will tomorrow hold? How will I feel when I awake?
How much more can I endure? How much more can I take?
I feel I have hit the bottom, how much deeper can I go?
Today is just another day, to feel the pain I've come to know.
