Will this pain ever stop?
My uncle would not have wanted me to feel this way
It feels like a black cloud is following me everywhere.
One of my best friends tells me to be strong,
But I can’t stand it anymore.
Too much has happened over the last couple of years.
I can’t let anyone see the pain that I am in.
It strikes deep in my heart, paralyzing me, making it hard to breathe.
I’m not sure that I can do this anymore
The only family, besides my mother, who ever cared for me was taken away.
I know that things happen for a reason
Things that are supposed to make me strong.
But how is taking my support away going to make me strong?
I continue for my mother, my aunt and my cousins.
And I try to continue for me.
Hopefully, the pain will fade over time.
And I will finally be happy and strong.
