Where's My Head At?

I'm sure I had rational thought,
Once upon a time.
Though when that was seems far ago.

For suspicious thoughts are hounding me.
And clouding all my sight.
Stopping me from seeing all that is good.
From all that is just mine.

Yet these feelings I just can not shake.
And I don't know of their origin.
But they seem to stick to me.
As if I am their maker.

Are they spun from media?
From my jealous glances outwards?
Or are they fashioned deep inside?
A place, I do not journey?

For I seen to want what I cannot have.
And it's spoiling all my wares.
As I know I have the brightest gifts,
That others wish to covert.

Their sparkling laughs,
Unconditional love.
I know I am not worthy.
But still, with my unsettled mind,
I strive for things that would be harmful.

My selfishness has no constraints.
And I too weak to curb it.
Another path calls oh too strong.
I can not beat to ignore it.

I need some luck.
I crave some power.
My mind is struggling so.
No one ever warned me.
That, this ambitious drive I have.
Would meet its perfect little match.
In all my mummy essence.

So understand this xxxx

@MrsS I really struggle with wanting a professional career and wanting to do the best for my children. No one ever told me this would be so tricky! Xxx

Oh yes!!! I'm not the career-girl, go-getting type, but after over 6 YEARS 😱😲 of being a stay-at-home mum, I'm beginning to climb the walls!! Sad truth is though, I had no role models or anybody in my life to build me up until it was far too late so, as much as I've done my best and accomplished a lot considering my background, I'm now stuck in a rut (not a huge amount to put on the old CV!!! 😔) Not sure what to do next.... I'd def consider volunteering with a view to paid employment, to show my worth, but I unfortunately just can't afford to 😖😔 Anyhow, moan over! 😉 The show must go on with a smile 😉😃😃
