Motherhood
Motherhood
Do you remember the childish smile I had?
Do you remember how I called everyone 'tata'?
I was often scared of the beatings
And the constant screaming but then I received a letter on my sweet sixteenth:
When you first held me in your arms
I knew that it was your long-hidden dream come true
When you gazed into my eyes with zeal
I knew that our bond was special
When you jumped on the bed for my achievements
I realized that it meant more to you
When you stopped talking to me out of anger
I felt like half of my heart is empty
I know I won’t be with you forever
But your presence in my heart is eternal
I have your blood, you have my love
I am you, in a bigger size but at a younger age
I will always carry my love for you
Unconditional and pure
You’re the most beautiful woman I know
You’re my dear little mother!!
Your soul dwells in my brother and me
And will always.
