I've Always Been..
I've always been healthy,
in that way, been wealthy.
But lately I feel different,
a perpetual ache that will not relent.
I notice the bad things,
and the pain inside me sings.
When I wake up each day,
to get out of bed..I must find a way.
I'v always been happy,
and always a little sappy.
But lately I'm so sad,
When did things go so bad?
I am loved by my family and friends,
but that love always seems to bend.
I've always had food on the table,
but lately, to eat, I am not able.
I've always known I would go far,
but now I feel like I'm stuck in tar.
I 've always been who they want to see.
I guess now, I just want to be me.
