Against all odds

Against all odds

A Poem by Brook Hughes

Against all odds...

You are you

Nothing will ever change that

Nobody can change that

I've tried helping you!

You just push and push

Pushing me away

What do you want me to do?

I've tried my best

But it's not good enough

Is it?

I can't help you anymore

I've tried

Honestly, I have.

I keep telling you what I'm trying to say

You just don't realize it

You don't realize what you're doing

You don't realize that you're not the only one.

The only one with problems

There's worse out there

Trust me

I have seen worse

I have problems...

And you're part of it

But, what am I suppose to do?

I can't change anything

I'm only one person.

I can't change you...

Only you can!

Nice going with the saying you can only change yourself , because hey you can never change anyone else.

Awesome job. People need to do that more. When you try helping someone but they don't take it, you just need to walk away, not put up with it!

Very nice. It sucks when people depend on just you for help, acting as if they don't have the balls to change their circumstance and that they always need your help.
