Dearest Mother

I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH AND HAD A LOT OF PAIN.

BUT YOU HAVE MANAGED TO OVERCOME THE STORM AND THE RAIN,

DURING THESE PAST SEVERAL YEARS WE HAVE OVERCOME SO MANY OBSTACLES AND 
FEARS.

EVEN THROUGH THE BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS YOU NEVER LEFT.

YOU BELIEVED IN ME TO BE ALL THAT I CAN BE YOU PUSHED ME TO BE MY BEST 
BETTER THAN ALL THE REST.

YOU TOLD ME WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR EVEN WHEN I DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT 

I KNOW THAT YOU KNEW I COULD SHINE AND BE SO DIVINE MOTHER OH MOTHER!

I MUST TELL YOU THAT I GOT THAT FROM YOU I AM MY MOTHER'S DAUGHTER AND YOU 
ARE MY DAUGHTER'S MOTHER.

TOGETHER WE SHINE AND WE STAY ON OUR GRIND UNTIL THE END WHERE WE CAN 
TELL WHERE IT ALL BEGAN.
