Does anyone hear her calculated thoughts?
Does anyone see her tears?
Does anyone understand the weight she’s carrying?
Does anyone know the pain she feels when she’s alone?
Does anyone care about the exhaustion she continues to feel?
Does anyone care about the pain in her child’s eyes when she has to say.” no, not until payday?”
Does anyone care about the absent father who is nowhere to be found?
Does anyone care about the loud, combative voices in her head?
Does anyone care enough to wipe her tears?
Does anyone care? 😢
