I'm Tired
but happily
relaxed

life is good
yet scary
and overwhelming
and fun

the future
looks promising
yet the unknown
leaves me feeling
anxious

my kids
are my favorite people
make me so proud
yet bewilder me
constantly

writing
has been an outlet
like no other
the pressure
keeps me motivated

my friends
help me laugh
everyday

my family
there are no words
for their importance
in my life

my boyfriend
makes me feel special
everyday
holds me tight
every night
loves me
the way I deserve
to be loved
