My Existence

My existence
Never knew I existed until I started feeling pains,
Felt love too, it's nothing but bed of roses.

Love of a mother
It's a misery how you love Someone else more than yourself.
It all make sense because have been there.
Everything changes.....
It all changes when you hold the little fingers and kiss the tiny lips.

I knew am somebody but I never knew life could be this hard. 
Am just there to live with people fighting for my survival.

Oh, I wish she still fight for my survival. 
Now I understand what it takes to live.
I understand the struggle of survival.
It's survival of the fittest.
The struggle and hustle of each day make me thank my mother.

My mother, 
The most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me.
Her pure heart make me want to put smiles on her face. 
She is a gift to humanity. 
Thank you mother.
