Richard Hardiman Poet I do not know?

Why

While i sit and look at the way things are going in my life, I wonder why there's so much 
headache and strife.  Nothing seems to work out no matter how hard i try, Sometimes it 
makes me want to ccurl up and die.  But that is not an option when i think of my girl, the only 
thing to do is shake it off and give it another whirl.  I am supposed to show her the way, But 
it seems i let her down a little more each day.  my wife and daughter they hold my heart,So 
with a new day i have to give it another start. If this was not full of problems, worry then this 
would be someone elses story.  When things go wrong i don't know what to say,I can just 
shake my head and pray.  Maybe someday things will go my way, one things for sure it is 
not today.  I work so hard, for so long, this is beginning to sound like a sad country song.  I 
work to the point where so much hurts from my back legs, tendons,joints, It makes me 
wonder what is the point.  I have so many hopes and dreams for my family to do, As I'm 
sure that you all have too.  Is there a light at the end of the tunnel well i hope it is true, but 
for now it is just another train coming through.  So i have to get off the tracks once more, 
like i have done so many times before.  It sounds like i am crying or singing the blues 
unfortunately this all is true, I hope and pray that things are going better for 
you.                                                                                richard hardiman
