A childs voice in the darkness
Of a dream shes yet to dream
A badge of courage lacking
Another night it screams.
The kitchen sink is overflowing
Last nights dishes in dispair
The perfect wife and mother
Turns liar to the day.
Reality grits its teeth
Nothing as it seems
Photographs in their frames
Now represent her broken dreams.
The kids ? Of course she loves them
But the woman in her cries
And her man he cannot see
The hidden tears in her heart.
