I’m at a point of being so frustrated, I try so hard but things seem to still fall apart. I be so frustrated that hurt sits on my heart. I get tired of trying so hard to do my best. But I do realize that I can’t stress. I get so tired of trying to hold on. My heart aches and my mind is wondering wrong. I’m at a point of being so frustrated. I get so tired of trying to figure things out. I’m thinking this, thinking that but not persuaded. And in my mind I’m fighting with my doubts.

I want so much more for me that I can taste it so bad. I’m going to be successful you see.  My family and I will have some things we never had. And I will be the one to change my family tree. I’m at a point of being so frustrated. I don’t know what to do. My mind and heart feels so isolated. But I’ll hold on, be strong and let God see me through. I know things are going to happen. I’m thanking god in advance for what he’s going to do. I know that at some point, my newness will begin. And I know I’ll be a blessing to others too.
