At the Thought of You [poems]

67. The Life

Remember when your were a kid

and everything was so damn easy

you dreamed about getting married

having a job and kids

and just the perfect life

but

you didn't know something at the time

you didn't how exhausting it gets

how you don't think you could ever marry someone

because the commitment is to huge

you didn't think about the pain you go through when in labor

but at a young age everyone tells you how fun it's going to be

and not all the energy drinks and loss of sleep that is packed in there too
