To my mother


Its more than blessing to have you in my life// You've always been there for me since birth// Now I'm scribbling on this to let you know of your worth// Even when I soaked my pillow in tears// You were there and made me overcome all of my fears// Even when I was betrayed by those I call my peers// My poetry may never be deep enough to express my gratitude// You never given up on me even when I gave you an attitude// You always found me when I'm lost, when I'm in a wrong latitude// You are a black queen you deserve a throne// You deserve all the pretty things, the prettiest stone// You deserve the entire world, I wish I could gift wrap the globe// You taught me never to love material things cause those may fade away// When I went astray// You always kneeled down and pray// You taught me to dance in a pouring rain// To embrace pain// Cause that will make me a man..and I will stand in my own lane// One of the saddest things in life is when I see you frown// When tears tickle on the corners of your eyes,when you are down// I always hold my tears cause I know if I let em flow,in them I'd drown// You are the world's number one mom// And I'm writing this poem as a proud son// Because you have no flaws, I mean NONE// I'm scribbling on this to let you know of your worth// No one loves me more than you do on this earth// For I'm thankful, and thank you for paving me the right path// I'm sorry about the pain I put you through// Please know that I place no one above you// Ma, I love you//
