Is Anybody There

Every day it's harder to get out of bed To find the person I used to be The person I am meant to be Where is the talkative outgoing confident woman She was here just a moment ago I'm sure of it Do this Don't do that Don't raise your voice Don't say that Don't think that My freedom taken from me Was this what I agreed to I don't remember signing on the dotted line My emotions on trial My tears apparently against the law Put a smile on your face Don't you know you should be grateful Must I sell my soul for a roof over my head Swallow my protests Till I'm ting out sunshine Cause that's all you want to see I'm so tired Exhausted I pray for a reason to wake So far I have yet to receive a response

Heather, we can all relate. We've all been there. It's a phase and it gets better.
