Days Like These*** Poem by mona martinez

i don't know why,
on days like these,
i feel so alone,
people seem to leave me behind,
thinking they know me,
i want to feel like i belong,
but, on days like these,
i feel people don't want me around,
making it easier to fall back into,
my old habits bacause there is only,
so much i can take,
before everything start to feel,
like it is all falling apart,
i try and remain strong,
and still act as if nothing is wrong,
because with days like these,
i don't want to mess it up for anybody else,
i'm the one having a bad day,
shouldn't i just learn to deal with it?
