less than fighting

I didn't ask for this
Constant pain
I still have to do everything
Every single day

I'm not the fighting machine
That I used to be
It hurts to get out of bed
Sometimes to even move
But it doesn't seem to matter to you.

I expect a lot of myself
But I have limits
I can't do everything
I can ask for help
Or at least some understanding.

Something I shouldn't have to ask for
Just one more
Thing I need from you
One more thing I hate to do
You have to fight to get the words out of me
They're not easy
Bear with me
Have some patience
Help sometime
That's better than anything else.
