FAMILY MATTER

We keep,
Working on ourselves 
Trying to know
Our dark sides 
Correcting 
Each other's flaws without discrimination.

Sometimes 
We fight 
When she's hurt
I am too
She's angry 
I am as well 
But we always find serenity 
Within us after every fight, bring the light.

This kind love
Keeps be alive 
My mother,
A one of a kind
A blessing from above 
Never to be traded for anything 
Now I'm being selfish with her
Because I wanna own her forever.

A blessing to have such a mother. Do cherish her. My mom died almost 4 years ago. Love your honest writing!
I'm sorry for the loss, my sincere condolences... Thanks for your compliment!
