Hero Within a Mother (Free verse) by confuzdlilgirl
She brought me into this earth I came
and then I noticed how much she reigned
if I'm confused beyond my site
I'll go to her to make it right
A boy has come and ripped my heart in two
she isn't always there to coddle, but knows just what to do
If a gap appears between a friend of mine
she tells me not to worry and just give it time
If I come to a time where I don't know where to turn
She comes to tell me its only a lesson I am to learn
Not to worry for I'm fine just how I conceive
I can get what I want if I only just believe
Sometimes she does things I just don't understand
Like keep me from going out or doing what I can
She doesn't try to shelter me from society's ways
instead she teaches me to look beyond the haze
Though I can see bad, to always look for the good
To always say "I will" and never "I could"
I hear of her childhood and her times with guys
I know I resemble her when I express through my eyes
She is the one that has taught me everyone's ways
It is she that I know will be there through out my days
When I walk down the aisle and look at her tear
I'll know even though I'm grown, she will always be near
When I trade places and become the mother
I know she will help me teach and raise my daughter
The way she has with me, I will do so the same
I will show her everything and the rules of the game
She is the guardian of my life
My protector from the strife
My teacher of things in school I won't see
My Hero...in which I hope to be.
