Are You Still With Me?

Are you still with me?

Even through my toughest days and difficult ways

Will you choose to sit it out with me?

It comes out of nowhere…

Sometimes the heaviness just weighs more without anything being added

And it feels lighter even when nothing has been subtracted

It just is and it claims my space, my mind

And everything in between when I allow it to win

My only breath of fresh air is knowing if you are still with me

It’s all I’ll ever need

But don’t get me wrong…this isn’t a battle I’m wanting to pass along

No

I need to know if you’re with me

Because truly I have no chance at it alone

I can live with letting it win here and there

But my God, I can’t imagine a daily defeat

Because when we’re alone we begin to disappear

But accompanied we maximize the best of who we are

So I ask again

Are you still with me?

- Are you still with me?
