My Mother
It was love at first sight
The day I was born kicking & screaming
Taken from the secure warmth of your insides
As the doctor placed me in your arms
I looked into your beautiful brown eyes
At you my protector
Because of you everything would be alright
Before I could walk
I wanted to speak your name
You my mother
The under stander of my gibberish ways
Every time you left for work I felt confused
Not knowing if I would see you again
“Cry Baby Toya”
Soon became my name
Being separated from you caused unbearable pain
Only when you came home
Did I feel complete within
When morning came the process
Repeated again and again
As the years passed the tears came less
I came to understand
Even though your gone doesn’t mean you left
As I grew older it was me who had to leave
From going to school, making friends
Even learned about the birds & the bees
Yet it is you My Mother
That completes ME
When I’m mad, crying or upset
I yearn for your arms around me
Till there is no more pain left
Your jokes & smiles make me feel at ease
Because of you life is easier
Without you there is no me
You are my happiness in this world of negativity
I’ve always loved you
Although at times I may seem hard to read
You My Mother
Are the greatest blessing
In Life
I’ll ever receive
Love Always:
Latoya
