Don't Let Yourself Down - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Do people let you down
And they push you around
And you feel you have had enough
Don't give up you have got to be tough

I know how you feel
You are hurting still
I used to feel that way
But I put those thoughts away

Don't let yourself down
Don't let people push you around
You have to be strong
And forget 'cause life carries on

I know it will take some time
But your time will come to shine
Just have faith in all you do
And you will make it through

Do what you want to do
Don't care about what people tell you
Don't take anything from them
Just go through life without them

Believe in yourself
Have faith in yourself
Care about yourself
But most of all love yourself

Barbiedeb - I really like this, honest I do. It is a great poem and speaks to me (so to speak) and every word applies to me....but Barfus? What kind of name is that?

Well, this was a copy and paste and I am glad you like it guys

Ann, I would assume the name is one she was born with because I wouldn't use a pen name of that nature

Many hugs.
Love,
Debbie
