The Best of Me

My mother the angel
She takes good care of me
She promised me the world and lifted me up high 

She taught me peace
She gave me love
She expected little from me.

Her strength, her faith made me to believe
She was a friend to me
She never gave up on me.

I will always remember her warmth
She always believed
She had hope in me.

She will always be a goddess to me
She brought out the best in me.
