Expiration
Is there an expiration date for mothers?
A question not often thought of
Shelf life of some kind or another
Dairy is dated, so why not love
Turning down the dial on feeling
From maternal high to simmering care
Press restart for a heart healing
A respite from refereeing seems fair
Pouring into others, year after year
Love exhausted sours to self hate
Overladen my arms can no longer bear
Spoilt maternity needs an end date
Reserves at empty, situation dire
Starving at the table, waiting to expire
