It takes some time to think things out,
A while for me to say....
all the things I feel inside
About you every day.
The list is so very long,
So it might take a little while...
To let you know that you are the mom
that forever will be in style.
You understand me most of the time,
and you try to make things right.
You care what I think,
and you are so sweet.
You act out what you feel,
and tell me what is on your mind,
voicing your opinions...
And you are right more than half the time.
Sometimes you make me mad,
but sometimes it is for the best,
and others you make me glad,
that I am this blessed.
The list will never end,
it will go on and on..
Because who can stop talking about their best friend.. mom?
Sometimes I have this feeling,
That our bond is not very strong,
Sometimes I can not stop caring...
For fear of our lack of sharing.
And as years have gone by..
Sometimes I think I shouldn't even try.
But here I am... trying so hard.
I started this as a mother's Day verse form,
But it ended up as an open storm.
A storm of my feelings inside,
of all the things I try to hide.
I love you so much more..
Than any one person can indure.
So, the list goes on,
my feelings never end..
and this is only where my poem begins.
I could lie, I could cheat,
I could sink to that degree,
But I wanted you to see..
How much you truly mean to me.
You gave me a heart,
Showed me how to love,
And helped me be the person I am today.
So now all I can do is hope and pray,
that some day I will be like you,
A wonderful mother too.
