I am a mother with ADHD (a sonnet)

I am a mother with ADHD

Overly permissive or too severe

I can never find what is in between

Routine I can never seem to adhere


Confusion is our normal way of life

The children never know what to expect

Why couldn't I be a more normal wife?

Maybe then everything could be perfect


But perfect is simply a fairy tale

This is something I easily forget

And yet I keep seeking this holy grail

This journey always causes me to sweat


I am trying to find a good middle

Finding it, though, is such a hard riddle
