Do all mothers go through this?

I loved giving birth to you to be your mother. I don’t regret it.

But I am so much more than just your mother.

Your father doesn’t smile at me so much; no effort into our love life.

My presence or absence doesn't seem to affect him one bit

I’m a mom, but I am not meant to just give you a brother.

Despite our differences, I still desire to be your father’s wife.

Do all mothers feel unloved after having a baby? I’m perplexed,

having you should not mean I should be miserable, in my afterlife

I hope to come upon a man who wants to pursue me and bother

me when I ignore him. At least your father still sends me a text

to ask about your well-being. I’m thankful you’re in my life.
