[bodytext] => Stupid, foolish teenager Naïve, inexperienced In the matters of the world How could you possibly know Anything about being me? It’s harder than you’d think You couldn’t do the job Of paying bills and raising kids But I’d like to see you try And fail in the process I’m bitter that your life Is going somewhere Exactly where mine didn’t Kids mess up everything I had plans for myself For my life alone But then you came along You ruined my life Now I try to ruin yours In other, more discreet, Intentional ways I know you had no control over being born What I don’t know is that you wish You never had been Well I wish that too sometimes You and I have common ground Does it make me a bad mother If I want my life back? Or does it just make me Someone who missed her calling? I’m living with the results Of my bad decision-making and Trying to save you from becoming me.
