Mom


I am a teacher

I am a 24-hour chef

I am an around-the-clock maid

I am an on-the-call nurse

I am just a statistic to society

I do not let a percentage define who I am

I am a single teen mom

I am an essay writer

I am a mathematics geek

I am a bookworm

I am a homework-aholic

I am just a loan to society

I do not let numbers define who I am

I am a full-time student

I define myself as a fighter who does not give in

But gives all she has

I define myself as a warrior who does not give up

But gives all she can

I am Mom.
