A Mothers Job

storm clouds formed and the lightening flashed
and anger rose up in her eyes
a grown woman was lashing out
while the girl inside of her cries

both enemy and friend am I
to the young girl fighting inside
I am who she is to become
and that knowledge inside her hides

I want to love and comfort her
though I still need to let her grow
a mothers job is not easy
for the answers we do not know
