I Wonder

I wonder why life is the 
way it is,it would mean 
nothing to me if I didn't
have my kids.

I wonder if life is worth
living day after day,
when people don't care
what I do or say.

I wonder how I have managed
to stay around this long,
alot of people think that
it's because I am so strong.

I wonder what it's like to
live your life care free,I
guess I will never know,
cause it will never happen to me.

I wonder how my life would be
if I really changed my way,I
will never have the chance to know
cause I will never see that day.

I wonder if it would be for
the best if I no longer had
to wonder and you just laid 
me to rest.

You said I made a comment here.. I sm very sorry that no one did. It's the kind of poem that I like to read. Maybe it was during the time you thought no one cared. Your wrong I always cared as you know. 2009 was some time ago. Even before I lost my April but there are people like me that even though you do not us we care.
