Is This Normal?

I'm sharing a week in my life.
I don't even really know why.
Maybe I need to see I'm not alone?
If I am then I'll probably cry.
Last weekend went reasonably well,
my daughter turned sweet seventeen.
I toasted her health with her long estranged dad...…
who for twelve years had never been seen!!!
Saturday she had her party,
her friends seem to think I'm real cool.
To their dismay, at the first whiff of weed,
they discovered I'm nobody's fool!
Sunday my bestie and me
sunbathed and had us some beer,
she randomly suffered a psychotic blip
and started reacting all queer.
Monday my son left for school,
they called me, 8.30 am.
To say his behaviour was terribly bad
so they're sending him back home again.
Tuesday brought payday at last,
paid the bills 'n' went shopping for grub.
Treated the kids to a tenner apiece
now I'm too skint to go down the pub.
Wednesday was awesome! I swear!
Got a chance that could alter my life.
A mentor to help me brush up on my skills,
to help us move on from this strife.
Thursday I wept for my sister,
for the baby that died in her womb.
Railing at nature and all it entails
for taking that baby too soon.
Friday confused my poor head.
I was sad but received some great news.
A poem of mine is to go on display,
where it will get thousands of views.
Saturday now once again,
yet nobody sits by my side.
Tell me it's normal? This week I've just lived,
or shall I just run off and hide?????

Hahaha reminds me of my poem ' Ride'. As I recall, it was too scary for you lol. Thank you my friend.xx
The above are the words I live by, Donna.
Ya know, people always ask me; "Dean...why do you write such creepy, horrific sh!t? Can't you--just once--write about fluttering butterflies, furry kittens, or cute, cuddly babies? How about love, or romance?"
To which I answer, "No. All of the things you mentioned are foreign to me. But darkness, I know.
I write the things I do because I have to..."
Don't fret over what may or may not happen tomorrow. It will take care of itself.
Well penned poem. Thanks so much for sharing.

Hahaha I'm glad you donned your socks of courage my colourful chameleon...… Fear is just a stumbling block in life lol.xx
Thank you for your great comments Dean and I am a firm believer that life should be portrayed from every perspective so carry on with your own style and genre. Ignore the haters and love the lovers lol.
