[hometext] => been a while since i done this - really just about postnatal/post partum depression (depending on wich side of the pond you live on) ENJOY!!!
[bodytext] => As i sit up here and watch the lady down below I feel her restlessness beginning to grow She was once ambitious with the world at her feet Yet here she is now, admitting defeat For she never anticipated that her world would turn She had what she wanted, for what could she yearn? I watch as she weeps whilst down on her knees Yelling “go away! Wont you go away please? your bottle is full, your nappy is dry, must you continue to scream and to cry? I am trying my hardest, i’m doing my best! I love you so much but hate you at best” With a wince on her face, caused by her own words She corrects her vision that her tears blurred Now she is taking the stairs two to one To come to the aide of her newborn son She showers him with kisses, holds him with her might And whispers “please baby, just sleep through tonight” She sneaks away, so run down and blue Little lady there must be someone you can talk to! How about your best friend? You trust her the most Or is she too a mother fulfilling her post? Your family members promised they would be there! Oh, the novelty for them has passed, just live in despair No one will notice if you keep it quiet They don’t need to know about these riots You see, when you have these moments of doubt Your mind cannot cope so it tends to leap out And while you were tortured with hurt and pain I was sat on the grass making daisy chains I will come back, but you need to be strong Only when you are whole, can i belong Just shout to the heavens when it’s over I will come back carrying a four leaf clover You have done it on your own, yes you sank But if you ask for no help you have no one to thank [comments] => 1 [counter] => 152 [topic] => 21 [informant] => paula_kay23 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
