This pretty much sums it up for single moms...

A nice gentlemen posted this in the single parent forum so I stole it from him. Enjoy and think before approaching a single parent male or female and realize how precious they really are.
Everybody wants to take , and nobody wants to give
People tell me just breath, but I don't have time to live
My mind is running in circles, and I cant stop to think
Reality is overtaking me, I'm teetering on the brink
I'm everything I can be, to everyone who needs
But i've lost sight of me, and I hear her silent pleads
I'm a mother to my babies, a daughter the best I can
I'm a friend to those who need me, a girlfriend to a man
I'm the hand that feeds the dog, a student with no time
All the while I'm searching for a moment that is mine
I'm the shoulder to be cried on whenever tears are shed
The booboo fixer, the teddy bear mender, my childs best friend
I'm the errand runner, the beckon call, the one on whom they depend
The listening ear, the helping hand, the understanding heart
The small role in a world, where I want to have an important part
I'm the girl who survived a lifetime of pain and tears
The woman who can't move on from the years
I'm the woman who can't stop going, I don't have the time
Too many people depending on this life of mine
I'm their friend, their shoulder, their listening ear
I'm his girlfriend, his heart, and I'm always here
I'm their daughter, their caregiver, their whatever they need
I'm the student who tries but just cant succeed
I'm their mother, their provider, everything I can be
And somehow in the mix, I've lost sight of me
I'm everything to everyone, and I just want to count
But even the small bit of acceptance doesnt seem to amount
I'm a survivor just trying to make it , in an impossible way
A brick wall who can't break , but I'm cracking every day
Everybody wants me to be there for them
and I'm waiting for someone to see me for what I really am
