Few of My Woes

Some days this pain is just too raw.
It is more than me just feeling blah.

So much pain from too many sources.
Through my mind this turmoil courses.

Will I have peace of mind?
Will true love I ever find?

Will I see my kids again ever?
Or will those bonds be forever sever?

Why can't I ever be normal?
Why am I always so formal?

Does anyone really care?
I know that life is unfair.

These are just a few of my woes.
They are worse than any foes.

One day the answers I shall find.
Then I can no longer be confined.

Sadness and turmoil often produces fine poetry... like this piece! Never underestimate the effectiveness of cathartic writing. I sure hope things brighten up for you. In the words of the popular song, 'You've Got A Friend.' Well done Kristy! God bless, Keith
