Beautiful Death

The happening

When did this happen
My loss of life
I died before
due to strife
Each new life
hope came again
Lesson learned
mistake not
repeated
each new life
again defeated
Never I said
I am not dead
I will decide
where I bed
old now I am being
another says who
I am seeing
who I see no
longer my choice
another has become
my voice
Here I am not in
charge
into my room
anyone can barge
This I was not seeing
I am controlled
by another seeming
Beautiful children
their lives screwed up
when I want to talk
I need to shut up
Delicate feelings
a word said wrong
my love or relationship
with a child gone
no longer do I decide
who comes into home
my dogs my friends
no longer roam
people I knew
those I choose to see
not my decision
not made by me
wrong to think
we are in control
life takes over
we all get rolled
Sanctuary suddenly
becoming jail
being needed
puts us in hell
someone offers to
take care of you
its bound to happen
what can you do
pride makes us
pay our way
we cannot say
no thanks
i'll be on my way
making someone need you
is not having them
free you
with children, dogs or others
cannot stop being mothers
Helping children
until I die
When I go
not up to I

A day I forgot to take my antidepressant
