The Summer Heat
**

A step foward,
and two steps back;
To hide would be an act of a coward,
but it will keep one's pride intact;

The Summer Heat gets the best of us.

To continue living in a life,
with no sense of tommorow,
Is not one I strive;
It is here....lies my sorrow.

The Summer Heat gets the best of us.

Loved ones fighting,
accidents caused;
Quarrels among us,
is what makes life a coin toss;
Chaos will reign,
For worse or better,
How do I know?
It's in the weather;

The Summer Heat gets the best of us.

No matter your strength,
No matter your hope,
No matter your wealth,
Or the tears you will choke;

The Summer Heat gets the best of us.

There will be a day,
When the sun rises in the west;
You can wait by the bay,
But the wait will be a great test.

The Summer Heat gets the best of us.

Can't help but wait,
for the day....
when everything will be okay.
