Poem: my life is sometimes hard
somehow i've ended up scarred
why can't i get rid of this pain
i've cried enough tears to pour rain
i have to be careful that harsh words
aren't said
just because i'm unable to get out of bed
i live a lonely life without a true friend
but they become enemies in the end
left alone and tortured by my head
got to struggle to get the kids fed
the mirror has become my enemy
if i look there i see ugly me
got to fight not to end my life
or cut myself up with a knife
somehow i'll get through the night
but it's going to be a tremendous fight...
