Sharp, sarcastic, wry and witty.
These are the words they use to describe me.
Brave, quick, bold and outspoken,
I’m a caregiver for whomever is broken.
I love making others laugh and smile.
For strangers, I’m known to get the extra mile.
For my friends, I’ll do everything it takes
To heal them when I see their hearts break.
But some days life won’t let me be happy,
And I’m eaten alive by stress and anxiety.
Don’t get impatient when I come undone.
We all know that life’s not always fun.
There are days when I fall apart.
Sometimes life seems to crush my heart.
Where is everyone when those days come?
As far as friends go, do I have even one?
At times my misery eats me alive.
I barely hold on as I struggle and strive.
I
’m sometimes overwhelmed with great depression.
Those days come lately in rapid succession.
I try to play like I don’t really hurt,
But today my back’s raw,
I can’t give you my shirt.
When you ask, "Hey, What’s this girl’s deal?"
You should know my pain is deep and quite real.
Maybe I am feeling sorry for myself,
But it’s hard when I’m not doing so well.
At times I hurt, I cry and I bleed,
And then all I want is a caregiver for me.
