Being Mum

You do everything for everyone during the day.
You organise, you prepare, you clean, you cook.

You do everything for everyone at night.
You comfort, you shush, you allow your husband to sleep.

You do the same cycle day in day out.
You are tired, you feel weak, you want a break.

You feel bad that you want a break.
Your child needs you, everyone else does it, you are riddled with guilt.

You then try to take a break.
But you feel bad again, there is stuff to do, you need to keep going.

So you keep going everyday.
Without fail, without regret, without sleep.

You are what superhero’s are made of.
You are strong, you are resilient, you are mum.
