Doing what I do is so stressful I know,
I sleep for four hours then get up and go,
People depending on me,
To be smart and strong in everything,
Get home late at night,
Stay up even later to get my work done right,
And then even later to get these words on the page,
So maybe someday someone will find my name,
Because a name means nothing if no one remembers,

Because a name means nothing if the right people don’t remember

This really stuck with me. I could relate so well to your situation, and I could feel exhaustion and desperation coming through each line. The differences in the length of each line adds to the natural flow and feeling of an internal monologue. Your last two lines really hit me, and your use of repetition gave the final line such intense impact. Meaningful subject, strong emotion, overall very well done.
