NO SIGN OF LIVING

NO SIGN OF LIVING

What happened to your passion, mom?

Why can't you get up out of bed?

In your sad state of unresponsiveness

We thought that you were dead

You showed no real signs of living

As you blankly, stared off into space

You were here, but then you're not

It's like you left the human race

We understand that you're overwhelmed

That you have too much on your plate

But we're too little to hold you up

We're too young to bear the weight

We tried hard, to not burden you

On eggshells, we'd step out of your way

We love you and we miss you Mom

Will you be showing up today?

This made me cry.. As i can relate to being overwhelmed and being a stay at home mom... I sometimes say i will leave because my life is stressful in so many ways.   I never really thought anyone would care. But reading this my kids would be just as sad.. Thanks for sharing
