The Cure

Being a Mother
Is about being unsure
This choice and that choice
It can be such a blur 

How can I make 
This child do good
And no matter your choice
It's misunderstood

So you just try your best
But then sometimes you don't
Because other life things
They don't stop, they just won't

Then the morals, they come
And the guilts there to stay
Until you wake up and get up
And fight through your day

See, being a Mother
Is about being unsure
Until your child surrounds you
And their arms are the cure

Aye, like that proverbial box of chocolates, a mother is never sure of what she has wrought but most stay the course! Enjoyed!
