When you have a bad day,
all you want to do is say
"I'm done", but you can't.
You're always gonna have to
be the one everyone expects
to do things for them.
Well you're done, you're no longer
their buoy they hold onto so they won't sink.
Not theirs.

This is the first poem I ever wrote that I was ever really proud of. It has made it's way into the Semi-Finals in a contest :D
