To My Mom's Real Mom

I never knew you, but I have your blood. Sometimes I wonder, how I'm like you, if it's more ways than one. And I think to myself, what life would've been like, if you'd kept my mom. From what I've heard, you were very young, only a couple years older than I am now. And you made a mistake, but yet, God used it somehow. So I owe you so much, and still, nothing at all. And if you hadn't given away my mom, I may not have been here. So thank you, for choosing life over death. But God made sure she didn't get left.
