'Don't be afraid. Be focused.Be determined. Be hopeful. Be empowered.

Michelle Obama

COMING SOON...

AWOL

​

Has anyone seen, 

the girl I used to be?

We gained a little life

But in the process

We lost me

​

And it's only really me

Who can truly see

How motherhood has left its mark

Irrevocably

​

Call off the search

Her bridges have been burned

She just popped out for milk one day

And never returned 

​

She has been replaced by

This knock-off Stepford Wife

Who is going trhough the motions

Living this new version of her life  

She almost looks the same

A similar sort of height 

But something is different about her smile

Something's missing from her eyes

​

She has lost the sense of silly

That favours the carefree

Bogged down now

With responsibility

Takes every little thing

So seriously 

​

Maybe its in her make up

The way that she is wired 

She'd report a malfunction 

If she wasnt so bloody tired 

​

I wonder where the old one is 

I hope that she's alright 

Had I knows she'd up and leave us

Then I might of said 'goodbye'
