Fighting Battles



It’s true: Everyone is fighting a battle.
He’s being evaluated in full.
Could it be autism, anxiety,
or a routine case of ADHD?
His mom’s upset, but consider her peer
whose daughter’s gender has become unclear.
However, these all pale when you can see
this mother’s son might be ready to flee,
and hers at risk for a psychotic break.
No one should have to feel this kind of ache.
She is still mourning the loss of her son,
his fight against cancer done, but not won.

It’s been months since her husband last had work
And hers stays out late, a recent new quirk.

Therefore,

Always offer support and remain kind.
Life is easier with efforts thus combined and
elusive happiness we might just find.
