This is Real Life

Home loving and caring And everything in between, Tail wagging as I walk through the door Happy to see me like I am his queen I take a deep breath, sigh I’m home The ovens on, the cookies are warm “How was your day Hun?” Always expected, Always the Norm Quiet house, waiting for my brother Energy blows through the door Popping wheelies got mom scared The peace, the quiet No more…. “SHOT GUN” I yell, As I run for the truck. Shouting, pulling, He won again. Singing along to our favorite songs. Minutes Later, and we are friends The sports I play The time it takes She cheers me on As I skate away I’m Home again warm In bed. She tucks me in Surrounded by Love That’s the End.
