Mother's Love

It is within your eyes that I found hope and love.
I cannot find them anywhere else in this world.
I saw myself through your eyes, a bundle of
Mystery and curiosity. With my head curled
Up against your chest and womb where you
Gave birth to me I finally understand things
I was too closed off to see. I have come to
Know that you would gladly cut your strings
To make me happy. It is because of you I
Do not want to stop fighting or give up.
I wanted to portray you as the “bad guy”
But you were just showing me that the cup
Can both be half full or empty. I have shoved
You away a thousand times, but I have love for
Everything you are, a friend and my beloved
Mother. You help me step through the door.
