Mom, This Is For You

This is for a special person
Who will always have a special place in my heart
This goes out to mom

Mom
Thanks for being there
I'm happy that you care
And that you love me

Mom 
You sacrified so much
Just so I could be here
You're so strong

Mom
You're a beautiful person
Inside and out
I don't ever want you to change

Yeah, you get on my nerves
It happens
But in the end
I know that my mom is watching over me
Smiling and watching over my every move

Mom
I struggle
And I make mistakes
And that's why you're here
To help me

Mom 
I'm crying inside as I write this
The love I have for you is so infinite
I can't put it in words

Mom
I love you from the very bottom of my heart
I swear
As long as I have blood rushing through my veins
And as long as I have oxygen in my body
I will always, even beyond that
I will always love you

And whenever I feel like I wished you were gone
I'll just remember this
But mom, 
Just know that I love you, mom
I love you

You sound like I did at your probably young age? I remember I had a diary and I'd write how pissed off my mom made me but the next day I'd be writing how much I loved her. When someone bothers you a lot and then also makes you love them alot, that is a mom. Just like your poem expresses!
