For My Mother
There's this woman I know
Who is the strongest woman I have ever known.
She fights off all my demons with only a few simple words.
She's a warrior in my mind,
The kind that can fight battles
And heal any wound.
This woman I know has seen so much pain and hurt in her world
But yet, she has risen above it and has become stronger for it.
She teaches me something new everyday
About the struggles of life and how to deal with it all,
And how to be better because of it.
This woman I know is my home, my heart,
The source of life for me.
She is the greatest woman I have ever known.
She is my best friend, whom I confide in every day.
She is real, she is honest,
She is my mother.
