i promise to be stronger,
and live my life as my own,
vut mommy i still admire you,
for the courage you have showed,
your faith i have excepted,
with tears now in my eyes,
and once the pain is gone,
ill make truth of all your lies,
i wont ask questions of you,
because the answers run to deep,
ill pray for you tonight,
as you will get no sleep,
but i will not condemn you mommy,
hes all youve ever known,
even though your heart isnt strong,
youll never be alone,
your way of life i vowel agianst it,
i wont settle for second best,
i know yourself could do much better,
but your affriad of all the rest,
i hat that life has dealt to you,
a heavy heart, and cautious mind,
because its all stacked up agianst you,
fearing yourself youll never find,
these times are often hard,
is what you often say,
but we seem to be enduring them,
every single day,
it isnt your fault mommy,
youve done everything you can,
i guess youll never allow yourself to change,
to live without a man,
ill never say the goodtimes,
werent the best i ever ahd,
but mommy icant forget,
all the times he made you sad,
tonight your tears have slowly,
seeped into my dreams,
and i realize "love"isnt always what it seems,
im sure in my mind that you still must care,
or youve said it yourself,
you wouldnt be here,
so once agian i promise,
to independentley hold my head up high,
i only wish for you the same,
in your heart you know whats right,
im probabley the last to say i love you,
but i hope it means the same,
im so grateful to you mommy,
for sacrificing in so many ways,
but i hate to see you hurting all because of me,
this just doesnt seem to be the way i wanted it to be,
but youve probabley told yourself,
that a thousand times before,
i want you to know ill still be here,
if you can never say you love him anymore,
ill stand behind you mommy,
because youve given me so much,
your life, your soul, your friendship, and most of all a mothers touch.
