I will listen to all of your problems offer support the best I can but you must understand that there will be a point at which I reach my limits and I must take care of myself

I care too much

Obsessed with the idea that everyone should be happy I toss my own feelings aside

I don't control how anyone else FEELS I don't control what anyone else DOES

I'm not alone Not at all There are so MANY people Friends Loved ones Who are there for me if I need them I only need to ask

Life became a mess With so little warning Tearing me away from the safety I thought I knew

What now?

For so long I fell into step Like a soldier Marching to a drum

I am here I am visible I will be seen Speaking out is scary can get me hurt ostracized abandoned But this is who I am and I will be me I will not be silent No matter how loud I have to be I will let the world know that I EXIST

I have a pair of magical socks They might look ordinary to others But to me, they are most extraordinary They helped me open my eyes

They showed me who I really am

Sometimes my brain is confusion and chaos A balloon of noise about to go POP

My head is a mess Full of thoughts I can't convey Words images Half incomplete sentences All running together like paint To form a blurred idea
