- on working motherhood
copyright freef0cus Jan 2012

there's never any time when you are ever left alone
your responsibilities multiply and you are left to atone

the guilt always grips you as you never have the time
(and energy is unavailable even when you do)
to appreciate the present, find fulfillment, so you 'family mime'

others seem enlightened and somewhat energised
but you cannot find your feet and only supervise

obstacles make you weary,
you cannot find a pace
and everything comes out of the woodwork
when you are already in a race

time is always on top of you
no matter what you do
and your superiors are always on at you
without regard for what you do or have been through

life slips through your fingers
and you often shed a tear
as you cannot get any traction,
Or happiness to reappear

You wonder at your journey
you cannot see it clearly
what are you really getting out of life events?

Things are looking very jaded
and good things are already faded

You wish for passion and for pleasure
and perseverance for divine assistance
to give you some persistence and help you find your way
