I cannot be a better person than I am right now.

I cannot give more of myself than I have already given,

I cannot be any kinder than the caring I have shown,

I cannot sacrifice any more of myself without being completely empty.

I guess to day I feel sorry for myself,

And wish that the rain cloud left my head,

And the cloud full of four leaf clovers would sit above me.

I guess today I am feeling all the guilt,

For feeling sorry for myself when there is people that need me,

And people that love me.

I need to remind myself that I am lucky for my life,

And lucky to have everything I have,

Because even if it was just me and a carboard box,

At least I had a roof over my head,

Which is more than other people can say.
