...I bend...
So many problems,
and none of them are mine.
I don't mind helping,
but I'm losing my mind.
I'm needed everyday,
always for something.
Almost never to just talk to,
just to be asked for something.
...I bend...
So many lies,
from everyone about everything.
My thoughts always spinning,
in one huge bind.
Tears drench my pillows every night,
as I fight for the solutions that I need.
But I always wake to find,
that the answer isn't always in me.
...I bend...
Words stumbling off my tongue,
trying to stand for myself.
Their words like daggers,
that shatter me like glass.
I need to emerge,
come above the water again.
I want to feel everything,
that I deserve.
...I break...
Please tell me what you think

Excellent
How is my little AP daughter
Very compelling words here
One of the great things about being young
is we are still flexable..lol
Just look for the next day
knowing they can become better over time
Love,
Dad

Nicely done,
This is a great write full of emotion great flow, very visual i really liked the last stanza a lot again this is amazing, I also liked how you used "I bend" it made it very real then used i break at the end. This was well put together !!!

Wow, I love this, it expresses everything you've been talking about, and don't worry about me, i'll be fine myself, right now, it's you, you are the one who needs help, and we are here for you, I ablsolutely love the long stanza, with the "...I bend..." inbetween, and the "...I break..." describes it all, a person can only be brought into so much, and they can only bend so far, eventually they are going to break, whether you are physically being bent, and end up breaking a bone...or being bending over backwards trying to do everything perfect, and break down emotionally, believe me I know, and this expresses it sooo well....great job!
