Mother’s Love

It Is a Scary Job, But I Love It In Every Way.

I laid in bed and I watched you sleep

I wondered if you would ever know how my heart skipped a thousand beats.

Hoping for a day I would be safe in my own state.

Will I make you understand the unspeakable things that I cannot shield?

But I can only teach you to be strong, to be brave, and to be different in your own way

I can guide you, lead you, teach you to trust me,

Love me for all the right reasons and even the wrong one.

I watched you sleep and it broke my heart

Because I might fail in my own state

I watched you sleep and it broke my heart

Because I might get lost in my own way

Who will hold your hand and who will rest your head?

Who will burn your light when the sun has gone dead?

But I will only teach you all that I can,

That, and so much more from where I stand.

Happy mother’s day to all the wonderful women out there! Stay blessed.

With love,

MO
