Mother Do You Know I Love You

do you remember the day u first felt me move? I danced to the weird music you liked so much back in the days where u used to cover yourself so I can be warm your hand brushed me now and then with tenderness… but it was ticklish to me I know u could hear me laughing cause I heard you laugh and felt u smile then I met you face to face for the 1st time I cried and cried but you kept on smiling you held me with tenderness and never let me go till this day I'm older now… looking back on the years not a single one have you ever left my side I gave you headache and heartache but you never hated me I love you mother… don’t be so shocked I always loved you but failed to say it no one has loved me better your love kept me strong I'm now a parent myself, I know how you felt when the world hurt me and you hurt too I was always strong but you were stronger these tears flow when I think of you when I think of how you hustled day in and out so I can have food, warmth and a roof how can I thank you? how do I say it better? Mother I love you hush now I'm not going anywhere just letting you know of this love in me the one you built and nourished so you can be proud, like I am
