Today
I woke up when she cried
Though I’d just fallen asleep
I got her out of bed
Gave her a hug
Sung her the song
The one I promised to sing everyday
The one that she will never hear her Nanna sing again
I changed her
Gave her a cup of milk
Turned on cartoons
We sat on the couch
She wanted to play
I just wanted to sleep
But I got up
We played
We danced to some upbeat music
I had to do something
The house was a mess
So I washed the dishes
They were all dirty
I ran the vacuum
I did some laundry
But I didn’t get dressed
Not today
I usually don’t
Unless I have to go somewhere
I hate going anywhere
But I have to work
I have to buy things
For my child
So she can eat
Grow
Be happy
And healthy
All this I do for her
She is all I have
And I am thankful
I would not be here if it wasn’t for her
So I will try to go on
To get through the tough times somehow
Go to therapy
Because there isn’t anyone else to help me
And I will try to hold it together
While she is around
And when she isn’t
Like at the moment
She is in bed
And I have crashed
But I will get through it
For her
She has saved me
So many times
And I am thankful
For
Today
