My time...

This is not a marathon,
But I seem to run in  a race alone.
From time to time at the clock I keep glancing,
Thinking I might miss something.

My mind was whirled by this pandemic,
from dull moments to days so hectic.
Now I keep moving fast on my pace,
wrinkles are drawn on my face.

I am a housewife with tons of appointments,
I don't belong to any offices,
nor with any companies,
but I always have folders tucked on my arms Mondays and Fridays.

The moment I wished to rest a bit,
the little one keep tugging my sleeve.
I just don't have the guts to ignore,
but to hold up my babe I adore.

So, this is how this new normal affects me,
This week I've been so busy.
When I thought I am already free,
there's something that shows abruptly.

There will be no time for recreations,
No more time for bonding and watching televisions.
Everybody is facing scattered papers,
from morning till the late hours.

I wish this coming day will improve.
This won't work I can prove,
Kids are being stressed and bored,
So am I, my head will explode.

I don't want my kids to suffer the outcomes,
so I need to bear with the conditions.
Though I used to control my time before,
this moment is another situation I can't grasp it anymore.
