MOTHER

You sacrifice youth, beauty and time

It all seems worth it no matter the cost...

Noone tells you the pain it all brings

Noone tells you the hurt you suffer in it all...

The laughter, smiles, pride it's all nice

The tears, heartache, and shame though you seem to feel thrice...

You think when you become a Mom you will never be lonely again

Life has a way if fooling you though, doesn’t it?

You would never give back the experiences that you’ve had

Just wish it would have turned out different, not so damn sad...

You take what you get girl, for you know where you came from

Even if it doesn’t seem like it, your life is probably better than some...

Put a smile on now, tuck those feelings away

Go do the dishes, fold the clothes and be glad for another day!
