You Were The One

You were the one who kept me close to your heart for 9 whole months.

You are her.

You were the one who would grasp me when I was crying out a river.

She is you.

You were the one who helped me get back up after I fell a handful of times.

You are her.

You were the one who made me smile each day when I saw that you came to pick me up from school.

She is you.

You were the one who made sure I would always do my best and never look back at things.

You are her.

You were the one who I could always talk to no matter what was going on in my life.

She is you.

You were the one that shaped me into a young woman I am today.

You are my mother.
