These Words Poem by Pamela Mote

I struggle so bad
I have to get away
With myself I get so mad
Things now are starting to change
All I have are these words
I try to keep it together
But the tears roll down
They smear my frown
Over and over
What can I do?
I try to be happy
But I remain blue
Why is it so hard for me?
Why am I so weak?
I have nothing but these words
They are piercing me
They cut me so bad
They tell the truth
I don't have time to be sad
I have things to do
Life is calling
But I am slowly stepping back
My heart is falling
What do I have?
These ugly words
And only God can save me now
