I think I'm losing my mind today
and maybe these past weeks
little things keep happening
to knock me off my feet
I tried to make a home
for my baby's to lie their head
all our belongings were stolen
from us instead
I went without my medicine
and without it I cant think
no wonder I moved in to a place
with water you cant drink
the bills
they were outstanding
and health care isn't cheap
to make it through the month
is a blessing you must seek
a friend whose shot for money
and one who dies to young
leave me feeling pressure
of things Ive left undone
I live in a world of madness
where dominoes tumble down
and the world that should surround me
leaves me here unfound
I worry and I wonder
till I'm sick with grief
when does this end
normal is what I seek
though I doubt Ill ever find it
though I wish it would come true
every time I turn around
my misery is renewed
tragedy surrounds me
alone here in my head
I wish someone could help me
before I end up dead.
Author notes
Well as you can tell my life has been on a down slide these past few months..I tried to by a home and ended up with a slum lord i was forced to leave the place because the water was unsafe for my kids ...then the guy steals all our things ....friends are dieing every where I have a mental illness and no way to get meds....Sooo I guess you'd say I'm pretty stressed out and life seems pretty dreary for me now...so if you pray..please pray for my family and if you don't keep us in your thoughts because I'm losing control...Many Blessings to all Frances

Oh, this sounds absolutely depressing. i can feel the despair that is laced into your work. I am terribly sorry to here that all that crap had to happen to ou at the same time and I do pray that you can get back on top of things soon. I am feeling the finacial pressures of a mom too right now.
much Love
