If Ever

The bad side of Mothering

By Kayleigh TaylorPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

If ever there was a time, I needed strength

If ever there was a time, I felt alone

If ever there was a time, I needed to talk

If ever there was a time, I lost my head

If ever there was a time, I questioned my sanity

If ever there was a time, my patience was tested

If ever there was a time, I felt so guilty

If ever there was a time, I let myself down

If ever there was a time, I questioned my ability

If ever there was a time, I let her down

If ever there was a time, I questioned my skill

If ever there was a time, I cried inside

If ever there was a time, I wanted to cry outside too

If ever there was a time, my heart ached for love

If ever there was a time, I questioned who I was

If ever there was a time, I wanted to scream

If ever there was a time, I wanted to give up

If ever there was a time, I punished myself inside

If ever there was a time, I needed him

If ever there was a time, my life felt forced

If ever there was a time

If ever there was a time

If ever there was a time...

I promise you're not alone

Ever there was a time but that time is never lasting
