Mom

Although I am not the greatest they aspire me to be,

All you just say is to "just be me,"

Even though I sometimes break down and cry,

I would always see you there by my side,

You would always tell me that everything's fine, 

Until I realize you've sacrificed your values for the sake of mine,

I would always see you drive to work every day,

Only to receive the smallest, little pay, 

But, why does she work so hard from down to her feet?

"Because I love you," she says,

And that's all I need.
