The Fixer
Jekyll and Hyde Insanity
The line between in-sanity
a mark few understand.
Some days you’re barely hanging on
other days it’s well in hand
*
Depressions like a monster
a villain you can’t see
It comes and goes in shadows
It varies in degrees
You make it through one day
with a smile in its place
Get home at night, turn off the lights
put a pillow on your face
Tears comes in waves like the ocean
floods come, it’s hard to breathe
You’re the life of the party, livin it up
at least till everybody leaves
*
Most have no clue, there are two of you
The pleaser and the martyr
To keep everybody happy
you “Jekyll and Hyding” your disorder
*
Won’t ask for help, you don’t know how
and here’s the biggest clincher
You wont let anybody see
That you can’t fix the fixer

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
