Beyond the Surface

a day of tears and broken spirits spent on the floor in frustration and no commmication blame, causes and denial tired of the lectures and accusations the guilt and confusion years spent thinking that i had to give everything to have people care dinners, money, time everything has been for the keeping of the peace the status quo don't understand why everything broke family torn apart freindships with conditions unconitional love that was not there when needed hurt and confusion never meant to keep things from people just tried to keep things separate would never endanger those i love truly believe that it was my duty to help a sick person but am learning to realize it cannot happen if i lose everything that is me. years spent giving in years spent not speaking up years spent keeping peace at all costs
