a poem

heartache.
those hands.
imperfect smile.
poverty claiming time.
stress weighing the body.

dreams changed then forgotten.
children pulled from your body.
temper cooled by illness.
swears no regrets.
tammy.

i want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for taking the time to read my work. it really means the world to me. feel free to clap, comment, and/or highlight; your support is genuinely valued on my end. if you are curious on how to and/or willing to further support me. you can buy me a pen. i also value good ol’ fashion word of mouth, so please feel free to share my piece and consider exploring this blog post. thank you again for reading this far.
