Mama lives in quandary

but she's adherent everyday

Mama's face holds bereaved eyes 

but she's a patroness for us all

Mama's got tired bones

but she stands so, so tall

Mama loves the way you love

when others always come first

Mama puts herself last every single day

we never notice, it's just always been this way


The author's comments:

My mother has always been the biggest supporter in my life, in my sibling's lives. It wasn't until very recently that I've begun to see how my mom lives, how she provides for three children who aren't always capable of thanking her in the way she deserves. I can honestly say that she's my role model, and that I am eternally grateful.
