Close in age… two toddlers
It’s more than I can bear
Both crying, I’m in crisis
I am freaking out, I’m scared.
You’re gone, I’m here without you
I struggle with these kids
I’m trying , but I’m hurting
About to blow my lid.
The screaming and the tantrums
It never seems to stop
I’m ready to call 911
I need to call the cops.
It’s too cold to go outside
Too much to get them dressed
Jackets , boots and mittens
But, they’re screaming… Yes, Yes, Yes!
I don’t want to have to do this
What am I supposed to do ?
Can’t catch a break or leave the house
The way you get to do.
When you come home they’re happy
You play with them awhile
Before too long it’s time for bed
You get to see them smile.
I get to do the laundry
To vacuum, dust and clean
When I tell you I’m not happy
You just say … I’m being mean.
I need some medication
I could use a therapist
I’m in a deep depression
Please help me to get through this.
