Where's MY hero?

Seriously? Where's my hero?

Here I am, the "strong one" for EVERYONE!

​This wasn't a role I wanted to take

Not at that young of age

Not all my life

Here I am now

Breaking down on the inside while I have to continue to be the hero

For my parents, brother, friends, everyone

Everyone

I can't say it

I can't say it to anyone what they have done to me

No...that isn't the right way to say it

However, I don't know how else to put it

I was forced into the position

To help me survive

But now it's killing me

They've all put me on this high pedestal

I'm so high up they can't see me

I'm not longer connected

A separate being

Am I even human anymore?????

If I am weak, it's never good

Looked down upon, used as a weapon, even no one helping me

It's all happened

So now I don't even take the risk

I will push and shove you out of the way

Do I want to?

No

I don't

But there isn't a hero for ME

When I thought there was

They leave

YOUR JOB ISN'T DONE!

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO?!

But alas, bearing grudges does no good for the soul

So I let them fly

I continue to be "strong"

It's the only thing I know how to do

...

Seriously....Where is my hero?

Wow, this is seriously the most incredible thing I have ever read. I identify with almkst everything you said here. It seems we're only looked upon when we are needed and discarded when we are no longer useful. While I am still fighting my own demons, I would like to offer you my sincere friendship (ears, to listen to you, and a shoulder to cry on if necessary).

I know how you feel. I feel like I'm always there for people. My mum, ex boyfriend and friends, when I had them. But they weren't and aren't there for me. But I have started telling them that, as selfish as itakes me feel. They need to know they're wearing me down. That I can't do this anymore.
