My Baby

Infant crying in the night Restless mother can't sleep so tight Her life of ease taken away By just one of those simple mistakes Dirty diapers in a bag Now all she can afford is dirty rags Tears have fallen so many nights Only after she turns out the light So strong, she tries to make in life But for a teenage mother the load isn't so light Pushing and pulling never a rest Always feeling she is to fail the test
