A darkness engulfs
Takes your breath
Beats you down
Steals your life

Deep in your mind
You wander paths
Of hopes dashed
Litter of regret

A toll this takes
On your mind
Your body
Your soul

I want to help
To give you comfort
To ease your thoughts
And give you calm

If for a moment
Or forever I could
I’d give to you
My strength, my resolve

But know this now
By you I will be
Weathering the storm
Inside your soul

Forever

We all have baggage as we go through this life
Many hopes and dreams that are unfulfilled
Problems and regrets that we wish we could change
Loads of baggage of which we are ashamed

We must learn to accept things we can’t change
Move on with our lives in the present moment
But honey there’s one thing I want you to know
I’ll carry your baggage as far as we go
