The alarm is buzzing
The baby is crying
Its already morning
And my son is now whining.
I start the coffee
The smell penetrates the air
A subtle yet calm breeze
Gently blows through my hair.
I stand there motionless
Simply tired of it all
They say life is a bliss
I doubt their call.
The kids are dressed
The lunches are packed
The keys are whisked
From the wall that stands scratched.
While driving down the road
My mind begins wander
Where did I get this heavy load?
That rolls through me like thunder.
A single mother
That is who I am
There is none other
A smoother road to plan.
Where are you at?
Why cant you be found?
A simple smile or touch
To merely grace my hand.
Does love even exist?
Or is it all just some game
That lovers seem to believe
As they are caught up in their claim.
How was I to know?
That you could be the one
To open my eyes once more
& Show me what can form.
Can you blame me for my fears?
My wall of resistance
My heart has frayed
And now consists of low persistence.
I am so scared inside
If only you can see
Scared of not the heart
Rather how much I now believe.
A belief once thought
That could never be
A belief so strong
That it has set me free
Thank you for so much
And for all that you are
Thank you for extending
Your heart out so far.
But most of all
Above all else
Thank you for touching my heart
And sparking such love.
