in my life

I am living my life
in the moment of time
striving to be my own
each time I almost get there
I fall back again once more
wondering about what it is
that I'm really fighting for
with no hands to help me
or pull my way through
when the only thing that I have left
is the memory of you
my hands are bleeding
and aching in pain
struggling for the top
not knowing what I'll gain
