I Have Been Down That Road

If life, itself, becomes hard to bear;
for circumstances upon you wear,
and you need someone to share your load;
do know this, I have been down that road.

If pain your heart begins to impair,
then seek for one who does truly care,
as you will need one to share your load;
for know this, I have been down that road.

If burdens become to you a snare,
as thoughts of suicide at you tear,
and you need someone to share your load;
do know this, I have been down that road.

If it seems you've uttered your last prayer,
and you want to give up in despair,
I can be the one to share your load;
for know this, I have been down that road.
