Told Reality

Spoken as it is Still had the power to make into a reality The prayers of my mom Favoured in all her ways She prayed The mistakes of my youths will never be fall her. Life will not throw her anything The choices she has Will not be filled with dread Holding me to her chest With tears in her eyes She said. If there's a God in heaven Let him hear my cry This child will never live my faith She shouted it so loud That the birds carried it Till the day it became a reality They sang it back to us. And we danced to the tune of it. We never knew the power in the tongue. Till my reality became different from my Mother's.
