Ode to my mother
You had your happily ever after already planned
Two kids and a loving husband
A safe income to retire off of
The only thing that could have gone wrong did
You lost your balance
But it didn't break you
A newly widowed mother with two young kids to take care of
There weren't many people that could help you
But you never gave up
For the last 14 years, you're the only parent I could ever wish for
You have always given us the best life you could
Whenever I picture you its always a stretched grin across your face
Always so happy and joyful
You manage to find light in every dark situation
I never understood how you did it
You always keep me motivated to be great because you always have faith in me
Our happiness was always your top priority
We never asked for much but when we did you tried your best to get it
Just thanking you is an understatement larger than the Burj khalifa
I Just hope you really know how much I appreciate you
I don't know where I would be if you weren't for my mother
