I do not know if you know this
but it has been tough for me too
I feel so lost and dishearten
as I smile when life goes by
It never ends
Routines are nice if every one plays along
What parent wants to constantly remind their children to focus?
And to please help out
They do not understand in a way that an adult would.
Their abilities are limited to what they comprehend
or how they can contribute.
I understand this and accept this
It’s my role to focus. To think ahead.
To start the day with a smile
They should enjoy life
Feel safe and loved
With no worries
I am exhausted by the time I go to bead
You would think I would sleep better drained and empty
Sleep sometimes never comes
Its dark and I’m alone
I’m left with my thoughts,
I try to read
I write what I feel
I write what I’m longing for
I cry out in a silent voice and beat my chest
I’m in so much pain
Writing is the only release I have
So much to think and worry about
I am running away in my mind
I tell my self 'breathe' It’s going to be ok
I close my eyes trying to feel a better life breathing on my face
But this book needs to be read one page at a time
No cheating or quick fix. Each word seems to last a lifetime.
I swallow but I have not eaten
I drink, but my thirst is never satisfied
My arms are empty But I carry a full load
It’s morning again The day has started
“Good morning angels” Kiss Kiss

Truly a magnificent poem! We all fight battles at night. We may never win, but there's always a reason to keep on trying. And as long as there is a smile, kiss and love, there's still hope, yes?
