12 years

I never thought before my teens
i could be a mother
confusion is all i feel
but that don't mean that i don't love her

hold her in my arms
stroke her hair
and whisper into her ears
watch her drift
as i wipe away my tears

i pray to God to give her all she needs
and i will work to give her what she wants
during the hours that she sleeps

but there are times i question
laws if wrong and right
how did i end up mothering
the woman that gave me life?

please leave a comment
thank you
