A Mother's Embrace

"You mean everything to me,

You're like the sky, and I'm a little bird

Longing to stay close to you

For all of my days.

You're the moon

In my darkest hours,

You're the glimmer of hope

In my despairing life.

You're the rhythm of my heartbeat,

You're the reason for my smile,

And you're the tears I shed.

You're someone

I can't bear to lose,

You're the one

Who loved me unconditionally,

Who cared for me unconditionally,

Who held my hand

Through my lowest moments,

Who shed tears

When I was sad.

You're the words

On my paper,

You're the air

I breathe,

You’re the cream

To my cupcake,

You're my partner in crime

For all my mischief,

You're the warm embrace

On cold nights,

You're my beloved mother

Who loves me infinitely."
