Poem -
I am not a Robot !
I`m a person, a human being
not a servant to be trod all over
at everyone`s beck and call
but I know life`s no bed of clover
my youth was a long time ago
it should be my time to rest
yet still I have so many chores
left exhausted and depressed
everyone should have time to laugh
and feel good about themselves
so why do I have to keep on toiling
we should be allowed to be ourselves
I'm not a robot, to do your bidding
but a daughter, wife and mother
please don't take me for granted
for once I'm gone, there is no other!
