For My Ears Only Poem by Sandra jacks

I'm the person,
who lives for everyone,
I'll spend my days,
fighting your battles,
ignoring mine..

see my sealing used to be all white,
but now spots of black blot out my light,
that's life I guess,
see...
I've screwed up so many times,
I've not figured out where it all went wrong,
but maybe it's life that just carries us along.

I would spend my whole life helping others,
until my fingers bleed,
I do it for the kids,
the families is need,
the hopeless and despaired,
I give them a big smile,
but I'm still not all there,
my thoughts are still elsewhere,
but i have some big issues,
and i need help here,
but I'll ignore it for the time being,
until i get sick and die here.
until the blood and stuff running through my veins,
does give me a fatal scare,
I'll continue on with my addiction,
only took a dare,
to have this affliction,
but i'm still not all there,
dear God please help me with my addiction.
