First and foremost, I am their Mother

First and foremost, I am their Mother:

I read your words, so many words; words, going in circles in my head
Buzzing, words buzzing like bees, I keep waiting for the sting; but nothing, it is not hurting
Running in place, waiting for the race; I feel it coming, its bout time for the running
You whisper something softly, I was distracted and I call out to you and ask “what did you say?”
You’re not there, I get no answer; I just missed the mother-fucking race


I am walking it out, I am fucking everyone now, I am screaming it down, and I am pacing now
I never throw in the towel, but you made me almost lose it now; and I almost lost somehow
Time for the second round, I am ready more so then ever now
I am eager and in the running now, then I see you…wow, standing there with those words
I don’t turn around


I got this and I am taking it home, my kids will see I won it; I can accomplish any goal
I push them hard, they run even farther; I make them pound the ground, pushups even tougher
Their body sweats they cramp up; I go at it just as hard… I can’t be a hypocrite my kids are stars
He makes the pin you won’t get him down; He fights the pain he won’t give in to games
He breaks the bar he is lifting hard, he has the arm to through that far, and she will take it on
No turning back


The buzzing gets loud, people and words all around; they see what’s done, kids go so far but…
Lori kids they are stars, they learned how to push it far beyond the limits, and create new ones
They got this, they run it down and pound it hard; there is no half way round its all the way now
It’s more than just me I’m in this so they see- NO LIMITS, NO LIMITS
You need to go to the extremes a mother teaches, a mother protects… Now watch me



I read your words, so many words; words, going in circles in my head
Buzzing, words buzzing like bees, I keep waiting for the sting; but nothing, it is not hurting
Running in place, waiting for the race; I feel it coming, its bout time for the running
You whisper something softly, I was distracted and I call out to you and ask “what did you say?”
You’re not there, I get no answer; I just missed the mother-fucking race


I am walking it out, I am fucking everyone now, I am screaming it down, and I am pacing now
I never throw in the towel, but you made me almost lose it now; and I almost lost somehow
Time for the second round, I am ready more so then ever now
I am eager and in the running now, then I see you…wow, standing there with those words
I don’t turn around

♥ To my 5 Children babes, I am so proud of the people your growing into and becoming ♥
