Am I a bad mother if
Sometimes I feel like completing a meal in one go?
Or feel like watching an undisturbed round of my favorite TV show?
Sometimes I feel like spending exclusive time with hubby
Maybe a candle light dinner or simply watching a movie ?
If sometimes I miss the highs of my full time job?
And giving it all up for my kid sometimes makes me quietly sob?
And giving it all up for my kid sometimes makes me quietly sob?
If sometimes an uninterrupted cup of tea I would like to enjoy?
Or sometimes I just don’t feel like playing with jigsaw puzzles and other toys ?
Sometimes I feel like spending time with friends,
And going for shopping and dining trips immense?
And going for shopping and dining trips immense?
If sometimes I feel bored of the cajoling and coaxing
And ensuring my child finishes her meal sometimes I find taxing?
If sometimes with the tantrums I am unable to put up with
And I feel bored of narrating stories, singing lullabies and brushing teeth?
If sometimes spending some ‘me’ time is all I wish?
Maybe reading my favorite book or just lying around as much as I please?
I love my daughter so much, she’s the best gift I could receive
But just sometimes if I miss the above dear God will you forgive?
Holding my child in my arms, being able to touch and caress
Are out of the world feelings that I would never trade for anything else.
But just sometimes I miss life’s little pleasures
And being able to enjoy them is all the heart desires
No I don’t think I am a bad mother
I am but a human being just like any other
