Rantings of the Heart

Be a good wife, and a loving mother;
Of your own troubles, don't give a bother.

Manage your family, make time for them;
Even when they snub you, be their best chum.

Give them unflinching support and respect;
The same in return, don't you dare expect.

In order to maintain family peace,
Just don't give your mind-voice, any release. 

Don't break down, whatever life throws at you -
Because that is what we are told to do.
