Can I Get A Moment

Can I get a moment alone?
Some PRIVACY please
Can I get a moment to look at my knees?
Cross my I’s and dot my t’s
Can I get a moment to eat in peace?
Or will you always come for a piece
Can I get a moment to hide?
And you don’t come and seek
Can a get a moment of silence
Your talking doesn’t cease
Can I get a moment to sleep, in my own space?
Must you invade every sacred place
Even the bathroom has lost its hiding views

You peer at me
You sneer at me
You constantly make jokes about me
You turn my world upside down
Then make it go back right round
Where would I be without you
Can I get a moment with you?
my loves
my hearts
my children
