“Rest, rest, rest!” They say,

So you can work and hopefully play,

But nothing works, I’m always dragging,

The pain, fatigue, disappointment nagging.

They love me so, regardless of my state,

I do my best to be a great mother and mate,

I may do things differently, and thats okay,

I hope to teach him compassion along the way.

So for now I rest, so that tonight is ours,

So I feel a little normal, even just for an hour.
