Good Wife

All the dishes I left in the sink

With a million decisions to over think

And the cereal still against the wall

Unread texts and missed calls

Don't want leave the boy but I got to go work

I keep the house running though I don't iron the shirts

Have I done too much screen time?

Is the car seat the right size?

Did I message my friend to check in on his back?

Have I paid the bills and council tax?

To be a

Good wife, a mother, a sister a good friend

A giver, a daughter, a dreamer, to be a woman

A woman

That show we started ages ago

Still can't get past the first episode

The date nights we said we'd have

A few and far between or pushed back

No food in the cupboards, so it's another takeaway

I keep the house running though we eat off spinning plates

Got to post at the right time

Keeping up appearances, online

The years are so short though the days might seem long

Got to take enough pictures before they're gone

To be a

Good wife, a mother, a sister a good friend

A giver, a daughter, a dreamer, to be a woman

A woman

A good wife, a happy life

If I smile I'll be fine I'll be perfectly alright

I know in time

I'll be a

Good wife, a mother, a sister a good friend

A giver, a daughter, a dreamer, to be a woman

A woman
