Everyday
I wait to go to potty
I wait make a phone call
And I wait to write a poem
For someone to be with my kids
I sit to watch some TV
Knowing i won't watch a program
As the program ends
As soon as my child wakes up
Or is back from school
I sit to have food
I go for a walk
I go to buy groceries
Only when my kids are not hungry
I take my children for walks
Even if i am a bit tired
I read them stories
Even when i am a bit sleepy
Not big sacrifices
But little adjustments
I put my children
Above my needs
Is this what being a parent is?
I don't know for sure
But if it's not done this way
It feels wrong for sure
