Repetition:

‘Chances’

We take our chances everyday

We take our guilt everyday

We take our pride everyday.

How do our chances rate?

How does our guilt hate?

We take our chances.

I have chosen: ‘Mother’

Mother where are you

As I sit here.

Where am I as a mother?

As I sit here I wonder why

How did I become one when I have none?

I have one of course

But mother where is your love

I can’t feel it

Yes I can, yes!

I feel it because I am a mother.
