*Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.*


You pluck me from darkness
And tuck me into your folded wings
Enveloping me in a love
only a daughter could ever know

When I fall blindly
You ensure I don’t scrape a knee
You shine through my darkest forest
Dimming the lights when they begin to catch fire

Your words flow like a river
Winding peacefully where it is needed most
If only I could fly as high as you
Because,
well,
I love you

This is a piece I wrote about my Mom after we endured a lot together throughout a family crisis. I have realized how much I need her, and I can not be thankful enough to have her by me every day.
