Today was breezy,

The test was not so easy,

I have no time,

In this life to rhyme.


My life is done,

I don't seem to have any fun,

Don't know if he's going for a run, 

Or chasing his son.


I don't want to go to my in-laws

Let me take a moment and pause,

They will probably expose my flaws,

It's gonna be difficult but it's for a good cause.


My father is doting,

He speaks to me in a way so motivating,

My insides feel like deflating,

Everytime I see him in his studio writing.


My mother is orthodox,

This is no paradox,

She is always going to rebuke,

Her scoldings are  never supposed to be a fluke.
