My Mom, The Love of My Life
To the one who showed me compassion while he worked endless nights
You gave me air to breathe and a heart to beat
continuously
to the pulsating vibrations of my every move.
To the one who screamed out of love while I silently cried
You gave me a present to build on
a past to remember
taking the foundation of my life and
creating a home
I could never understand you then.
Those years I despised you
Those years I regret
I cry now
For how I love you and owe you my world.
My mom,
the love of my life
