Mother


Bringing me into this world You thought I was a girl Since the day I saw you We came together as if I already knew you As a toddler I knew that I was wilder But that made you stronger You always said, That your both mother and father I never knew what that meant So why bother As a teenager You kept me out of danger When times I treated you like a stranger I want you to know your the best Don't even second guess You made me what I am Even when I'm not feeling well As a man You taught me how to stand Things I looked past years ago I realized, I now understand.
