LIFE IS SIMPLE

Why is it that life is never simple?
All I want is to get along.
I feel that the people I love most in the world are the ones who dont see.
I hear I love you all the time, but after a while, it doesnt feel genuine.
Does anyone care that I cook for them, do the laundry, wash dishes, clean up after them?
I know this is the womans role,
but have you ever stopped to consider
that Im tired?
Everyone says they love me,
but I feel like a second class citizen.
Is this all there is for a woman?
Dont get me wrong, I love my husband,
kids and even my life,
but why do people
change jobs every few years?
Its because they feel trapped.
You know,
a little fresh air sometimes would be nice.
Just a visit from my daughter to give a hand in exchange for all the free babysitting.
Just a call from the daughter who left home to be free to let me know shes alive.
Just a hand from the son who cant survive without the tv.
Just a pleasant word from the son who doesnt have one.
Just acknowledgement from the husband who only seems to see whats not done.
Why should I feel like everyone wishes Id left my kids home when I go to a restaurant?
Why do I have to hear Mom, can I have... whenever I go shopping?
Why do I always feel that if my husband touches me, he only has one thing on his mind?
Is it okay to feel like youre a convenience?
