Crack My Back

Lost...Sad...Worried 
   I cannot change it.
  
   I do not have magical powers.
   Matters that can be changed, take time.
   The things that I cannot…
   Are killing my insides.
  
   My voice and my words--
   Are not enough anymore.
  
   I practice letting go—It is so dam hard.
   My heart has cracked-- in half.
   
   You know the cracks you step over...
   So you do not break your mothers back.
