I Need a Friend

by Cathy   Jul 13, 2006


I try to smile but it will not hide the amount of pain I hold inside
I try to be happy for being alive
But I still come to the conclusion that I want to die
I have my kids who stop me everyday
when I think of their smiles I don't let that fade
They stop me from losing total control
They give reason to live and get old
I hope I can keep the strength they have gave
Before I take myself to the grave
I need to be rescued and happy again
I need to have someone to be my friend

    I can't believe some one else is passing the exact same thing I am passing in my life. I swear if I did not know you wrote this poem it seems like the words came out of my mind. This poem really made me see things diffrently. That I can be strong for my kids too. Jamie
