Tearing Me Apart

My health is always tearing me apart,

My mind and my heart.

When i look back on my journey,

I don't know how i got here.

I often thought of ending it all,

Of taking the pills to just end it.

I think of all the pain i've felt,

Of all the times it was too much.

I think of when i just gave up,

Not being able to take any more.

For so long i was angry with the world,

Any with myself and my health.

I was angry that i couldn't live,

The life that my friend had.

I had to watch from the windows,

As they ran and played.

While i sat with my crayons

colouring and prayed.

My illnesses never go away,

Some days are better than others.

On my bad days i want to die,

I can't help the thoughts in my mind.

The doctors have given me more pills to take,

Which makes me wonder how much more i can take.

There's no much more that i can do,

Than watch my health Tear me apart

And my family too.
