Not My Mother But My Mother

No your not my mother but then again your more than that
No you didn't give birth to me
But youve been the biggest part of my life
Your the one who seen me gradurate
Your the one who watched me go to college
Your the one who was there to listen
Your the one who wiped my tears
Picked me up brushed me off and sent me back on my way
Your the one who taught me to fight
For what I believe in
Your the one who showed me most of the valuable lessons in life
Thanks to you Im still alive
So no your not my mother but your my mother
