The Life I Know

I am tired of being the cook and waiter

The mother to my nephew and the cleaner

There has to be something more

Something that I must search for.



I am getting tired and I need some rest

I thank God that I have been blessed

I just need someone in my life

To make my hidden pain alright.



I miss being able to laugh and have fun

Now, I am always the one on the run

I have no time. It seems all I can do

Is what my parents tell me too.



I need a break today

A chance to get away

Who am I kidding?  This life is all I know

Maybe I am just not ready to let it go?
