Struggling Care Giver
She thought she was struggling
Until she met one who was
Gave her food and drink, paid her rent
Felt good about it the first few months
By month seven, felt resentful
Because the woman did nothing for herself
The woman was needy, whiny, annoyingly down
She could not listen to any more of the drama
Stopped lending a hand, stopped caring
Ran to church to pray for herself
God knew she was struggling
