She seems to take on the weight of the world in her hands, but people don't ever seem to give her a glance. She chases little people all the time and barely gets to wine. If only people really knew everything she really does endure they may no longer make her feel so insecure. They may actually lift her up with encouragement instead of arguing over petty disagreements. It takes a lot more than most realize to be a mother, and there aren't many who are tougher. Despite the struggle a mom wouldn't ever want it any different, because the memories she has with her children is truly magnificent.

Trapped
She feels trapped in the power of her own mind. The depth of her own angst has not been at all kind. The shrouded pain from her own fear has caused her to lack independence, ans as a result she has built a fence. She longs for the oppurtunity of liberation from all this inner frustration. She does have a glimmer of hope ever since she put down the dope. She knows this peace that she desires will not be possible without pushing through the fire. There is healing on the other side and she soon will finally be able to enjoy the peace that recovery will provide.
