Who Am I?

[DaddyJay]

Ok guys this is my first ever poem I've posted on here. It's a poem I've written especially for my family and friends to try and make them understand how it is I feel about myself and what I go through. Bare in mind that it is my first, but I don't care if you think its rubbish It gives out the exact message I intended so I'm happy with it. Oh, and please do reply and tell me honestly what you think, I'd like to know before I take the huge step in actually showing this to my family. Thank you.

Who Am I?

Who Am I?

I'm a friend, I'm a son, I'm a brother, a father to be,

I'm writing this in hope that eventually you'll understand me.

To understand the feelings that I live with each day,

To understand that no matter how hard I try, they will not go away.

I live this live as though my body is on fire,

I live this life as though I'm walking a highwire.

The smallest of things can cause so much pain,

And how it feels when I fall down I cannot explain.

With a constant fake smile to everyone outside,

I fear they will shun me so I prefer to hide.

Thoughts enter my mind that I dare not speak,

My mind and my body become ever so weak.

While inside a break, I curse and I cry,

I can't tell you the truth of the reasons why.

I sit here alone pushing away those I love,

A love you still hold, a love I'm unworthy of.

Once you said it's like walking on eggshells,

You don't know how to help or who to tell.

I know I make it hard for you, but I appreciate you, I do!

I swear on my life I am nothing without you.

Each day I look in the mirror and do you wanna know what I think?

Why is here? What does he want? The stupid, ugly prick!

You may think I'm confident with all the relationships I've had,

Truth is, I'm scared of being alone... Yeh it's that bad!

So you see this is how I feel inside,

I feel worthless and more, with no ambition or pride.

I know you are there for me whenever I'm in need,

I hate you! Go away! I love you! Don't leave!

Who Am I?

I'm a friend, I'm a son, I'm a brother, a father to be,

So now you've read this do you understand me?

You are my family, my friends, the reason I carry on.

Just know I will always love you, no matter what is said or done.
