Myself

Now you are a wife
A mother
Now you have no time for yourself
You wake up in the mornings ... so fast 
You are at war with time
To wakes kids up and helps them 
With morning routine
You prepare their  breakfast and pack lunch
Make yourself a coffee
But out of haste it remained untauched
You take them to the nursery
You wish had not forgotten anything.
While taking the bus to work
You have little time to recover
Work has become the same
Once it ends you need to rush again
You get kids from the nursery
At home all starts from the beginning 
Clean the house make dinner 
Shower and sleep.
Put the alarm on ...
YOu are afraid you will not wake up the next morning.
You do not even have time for your husband.
You don't feel like a human.
Sometimes you ask is it so hard for every women
 or only for you?
Sometimes you go back in time
to see if you will make the same choices 
You find yourself going down the same path 
You don't change anything
Then you look at yourt twins 
Your heart is full 
They are a gift from god.
You feel blessed.
You think bad times will pass 
It will even come one day 
You will miss these times 
and would like to live those days again
