My life feels like a china shop and I am the preverbial bull
Oh how I wish I thought the glass was half full
Oh how I wish to get better using all my strength and might
Oh how I wish I could get a restful sleep at night.
Often I feel very sad, down and blue
Oh how I wish people could be honest and true
Sometimes I feel poorly, sick and ill
Oh how I wish I could be fixed with a pill
I can be contacted through phone, mail or fax
Oh how I wish I could learn to relax
I feel part of my life my illness did rob
Oh how I feel I could still do my job
Somedays are good and somedays are bad
O how I wish I wouldn’t feel so sad
Often my heart races so fast I feel I’m dying
Oh how I wish I could stop this constant crying
When I broke my leg it was fixed with a cast
Oh how I wish I could forget about the past
At times I felt good, like a proper superhero
Oh how I wish I wouldn’t feel like zero
Often I feel grey and dull from this has begun
Oh how I wish I felt bright like the sun
Sometimes I feel I can’t deal with my issues
Oh how I wish I wouldn’t need so many tissues
Often I feel that I am not a good wife
Oh how I wish I could get a handle on life.
I understand life is not always a picnic in the park
Oh how I wish my life wasn’;t so dark
I love my family to me they are very dear
Oh how I wish I wasn;’t so consumed by fear
Everyday I fight negativity with all my might
Oh how I wish there was a silver lining in sight
Somedays I am laughing, somedays in a huff
Oh how I wish my head wasn’t full of rubbish stuff
Often I wake and could be in a good or bad mood
Oh how I wish more people understood
Sometimes I fee like winter, cold, windy and rain
Oh how I wish I didn’t feel in so much pain
I never know what role people want me to play
Oh how I wish I didn’t feel this way
It’s the end of the poem I have nothing more to say
Oh how I wish I was better…………One Day
