Thankful

Christina8

I feel like I have to be 

the best mother

wife and lover.

The list goes on.

Along with my anxieties.

The housewife duties are long.

The resources are short.

That muscle in my neck gets tight,

when I think of what I have to do.

Compared to what I'd like to do.

Worrying on behalf of four people.

Cleaning and cooking for them too.

Thankless days and nights.

Thankful to be blessed with it all.
