I Am Broken Strength

Funny, kind, caring, crazy, these are the words used to describe me. Little do they know I paint on a mask, Smiling day in and day out is such a daunting task. I wake up every day and find the strength for the never ending, because on me, my kids are depending. I show them every day forward is the only direction, They don’t know what it’s like to battle depression. What I would give for them reaches far and wide, ignoring the feeling burning deep inside. I make sure they never feel this pain, and I show them every day to dance in the rain. The light at the end of the tunnel shines bright, and that is where I set my sight. Though I may be broken and torn, A suit of armor will always be worn.
