Fool

This is a poem about life getting hard and wishing for something good.

Overwhelming problems
I came to you.
You say you are always there.
The time I need you,
There was no time
For little old me.

Overwhelming life.
I cry quietly to myself.
No one knows the pain inside.
The mask I wear fools
Even the best.

I often wish for someone
Around whom I can rest.
Smiling, Laughing everyhting
Seems just fine.
I lie and say I'm tired.
You buy my lie
And No one knows.

The time I needed you,
There was no time
For little old me.
