I know I got lost sometimes
or caused trouble
sometimes I lost sight of my goal
but you were always right there.
Times came where we didn't see eye to eye

A bond of mother-daughter love
And respect.
Everyday from then on
We talked
And shared secrets,
In the darkest hours of ones mortal life,
comes a light that will forever shine despite strife.
Even if the winds were to howl and all were fall,
she was there to endure it through it all.
What is more powerful than a Mother’s love? Only God in heaven above
A Mother’s love will never ever stop, she is determined to see you rise to the top.
A Mother’s heart is like a rare gem, that is so precious and bold
I hear them cry.
O Captain my Captain,
Self doubt screams.
My internal storm
Still terrorizes them.
Overthinking weeps
And Self esteem sobs
While my Concentration and Patience
