I “AM”

i am caring and selfless I wonder if people appreciate me being there for them I hear my mental health knocking on the door of my mind I see my life slowly shattering from a distance I want to feel like my own person again I am caring and selfless I pretend to feel like I belong but really I feel lost I feel that I am putting others before myself I touch my face to see if I am dreaming I worry that I am beginning to lose myself I cry when my heart aches from sorrow I am caring and selfless I understand I must try and focus on myself I say everything is going to be okay but I know deep down it won’t be I dream about a happy life I once lived I try to overcome my obstacles I hope to become a better version of myself I am caring and selfless
