She takes the train to work every day
Her heart races as she collects her pay
The men at work are lost when it comes to understanding her why
But she doesn’t bother to entertain them; she just goes about her day
She files the paperwork and delivers it to her employer’s desk
Of course, nothing satisfies him because he never rests
She takes her lunch break and sips her tea
Then, a buzzing bee disrupts her peace
She moves to another table and stares at the window hoping for a break
Then a baker walks by with his delicious cookies and cakes
She then remembers tomorrow would be her baby girl’s 10th birthday
Nevertheless, she remembers that she spent her last on paying the light bill
No obstacle stood in her way
No matter how big or small was her pay
She wasn’t going to let money ruin her day
She dug in her purse, searching for leftover change
She even looked in her desk and other places within her range
Afterward, she counted a total of $6.37
She looked at the clock and had 30 minutes left for break
Her fast adrenaline was no mistake
She grabbed her purse and ran out to the Exit door
Then caught the bus just on time
Paid her fair with only 5 dimes
She rode the bus to the grocery store
Once she arrived, she ran into the door
She grabbed her buggy and pulled out her list
With only 15 minutes left to spare
She didn’t care
She grabbed a carton of eggs, milk, sugar, and flour
Then, she purchases the items and was 50 cents short
She looked at the register and was scared
But the man didn’t care and just let her go
She smiled and said “thank you” as she sprinted outside the door
The bus came right on time
She hopped in with only 5 minutes left
The bus was going at a nice pace at first
But then, it got stopped by a red light
She was scared for life and with only 2 minutes left things got worse
The bus just needed to turn the corner and drop her off there
However, she did not care
She grabbed her bag of groceries and sprinted off the bus
She gasped for air
People looked at her crazy
But she didn’t care
She made it to her job just in time
Her boss called her to file some more paperwork
Even though he was always being a huge jerk
She was glad to be back at work
She had her carton of eggs, milk, sugar, and flour
Her baby girl was going to be happy
