We Got This
December 19, 2017
"We got this"
she cheers
giving her children the last piece of bread
Hiding evil in attempts to mend the last seconds of youth
clothes and broken arms a young mother couldn't afford
Young children who will never understand the wars they face
she hides her depression
"we are okay"
she takes the third job
"we are close to our dreams loves"
her beauty stong yet fadded
a tired warrior at her best
"we got this"

Growing up my mom would always say the words " we got this" to me whenever whe faced lifes hardships. These three words have been the rock of my childhood. While we may not always see eye to eye, we know that in a moments notice we would be there for eachother.
