Blank Verse

As just a little girl

I would look up

And I would be in your shadow

But I enjoyed being enfolded

In your love

In your safety

 But I still feel

As though I will never

Be as loving as you are

But as every day goes by

Mother, you encourage me

Say I am beautiful

You say I am strong

 That the world does not matter

As long as I know

How much I mean to you

I will always love you

Even though I know that

someday you will be gone

I will still remember

How you are the one

Who always believed

In me

Even when I didn’t
