Mom
Mom
By Asianae Aikey
You’re one in million
You’re beautiful and true
And one of these days
I’ll let you know how much I love you
You’ve been there for my ups and downs
You’ve stuck by my side
You always want what is best for me
I love you as much as a human can and more
You’re amazing
You shine through and through
You’re the world’s best mother
There’s no more that I could as for
You’re all I’ve ever wanted in my messed up life
You’re the bright light that helped me when I was little through the night
And that helps me now that I’m away from home
You tried to guide me away from the wrong choices
Tried to show me the right road to take
But like many kids I didn’t listen
I took the wrong road
I threw fits
I lied and cheated
I basically made your life a living hell
And for that I am sorry
If it weren’t for you I wouldn’t be where I am now
Getting the help that I need
You thought that I was being normal for a kid like me
Then someone told that I wasn’t a normal child
And things finally came into perspective for you
You realized that I needed help
That no matter what you tried to do at home it wouldn’t work
So you had to send me away
What I’m trying to say is
I love you
Even though you didn’t physically birth me
You’re better that any biological mother could be
I love you and I hope one day I can tell you how much
