Listen im not a selfish person but I can only take stuff to an extent..cannot stand ppl who are woe is me..life isn't going all that great all I can say it can be worse... Think you've got Problems When you come home at night Alone, crying When someone out there Is dying In a choke hold In a loving home Child gone mad Trying to run out that window Think you've got Problems When you don't have a job Or you're friends don't give you The time of day When a mother Can not breathe Her son on a rampage Father trying to save her As the police come knocking on the door Think you've got problems!? It can only get worse Trust me... So next time You want to feel selfish Think of whats going on around you In the background You'll get over it... |

![]() (big hugggsssssss) Oh Kristen, this is so very true, while I have felt pain, I know mine is very modest compared to the true sorrows of the world! (sigh) You speak of such a great truth and my dream is to do the best I can to help those who truly need our love! This is sadly powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kristen, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

yes, there are a lot of people who are worse off than me...and a lot of them who are better off than me. I am alive, that's good. Nice poem, makes one think about other people's battles. |

your words are right on we can all hear your song yet when going through an ordeal doesn't it often feel like you are the only one thanks for a poem to remind us that life has its problems but we are not the only ones going through them. Good Poetry - Paul |
