A Mother's Love

Teenage daughter sick with cancer Feeling sad, blue, and chemo ugly Crying tears of grief wanting to die Seeking relief from the whole situation Mother desperate to help daughter Lighten the load of horror exposed Into the bathroom goes With the clippers all her hair goes, goes A mother's love goes the extra mile A mother's love gives that extra smile A mother's love gives, gives, gives A mothe's love goes radiates all the while (Not original idea but from a movie that I am watching called "My Sister's Keeper".)
