Positive Mother...

I am a mother, I admit it. No reason to lie I am proud of my baby. I am a mother, ain't no shame I done laid in my bed and he was the outcome but I am proud. I am a mother, just 16 years old, daddy's not around and even if he was I wouldn't love him. He didn't hold me at night, he wasn't there I had to be my own teddy bear. Growing in hardship... My baby deserves what I didn't get. So I work hard... so ill say it again and i'm not ashamed. I am a mother, a positive one at that because even though the nights get cold I still think of the sunny days that lie ahead. I am a mother, Excuse me for my rudeness because some people seem to look at me like I shouldn't be proud of what I created. I am a mother, no reason to stare unless your going to congratulate or offer help I don't need your judgement. I am a mother, I breath and I sleep opportunities for my baby. I am a mother, through rain or shine I shouldn't be afraid to say it because he's the only one who ever really loved me. So excuse me if you think me holding my head up high is crazy. I will carry my extra weight... Contemplating what our faith will be. I am a mother, exceptense is what I seek and even if i'm an outcast my baby will stand by me. I am a mother, my knees may get weak... But I live for the struggle and I fight against the hustle so my baby can eat, so don't talk don't to me about being what I am... just bring me flowers when mother's day rolls around.
