I AM PASSIONATE


I am passionate

started life broken

it takes a while to fix

as a child i was an optimist

when i was young

maybe seven my mom was depressed

still is

the only thing I fought for at that age was her happiness

i was happy if she was

but later on her pain grew stronger 

Had three strokes and my mom is still a survivor

my mom is strong and i look up to her

as i grew older i started to understand

the things that upset her

when i was sixteen i got a job

helped her out

i see the stress slowly being diminished

as time went on 

my mom, she took care of everyone and the world

believed in all of my dreams

as long as i was passionate

accepted my move 600 miles away

so i could have the best education

she wants the best for me 

she knows i'm going to be a surgeon

so i can heal the world

the only one of her children 

to go somewhere far in life

as long as i have passion 

life is limitless

because of my mom 

i can do anything

the only think i want is to 

bring my mom happiness

this is the reason

that I AM PASSIONATE
