Charlie
What’s the matter with Charlie?
The days are never the same
There is always a serious problem
And everyone else is to blame.
What’s the matter with Charlie?
All the food has lost its taste
Dinners are manic and chaotic
Vegetable curry goes to waste.
What’s the matter with Charlie?
Restless nights with swollen feet
Midnight snacks of pickled eggs
Moody and lethargic, half asleep.
What’s the matter with Charlie?
Headaches sever, sometimes, maybe
I’ll be glad when this problem is over
and finally!
When Charlie has her baby.
