Where do I start?
Not the pointless fights,
Or the conflicts.
Not the misunderstandings,
Nor  the shouts and screams.
But I suppose it started,
From the moment
The first cell of my body
Began to take its shape.
That's When I knew,
I could never hate you.
The words I want to tell you
Are quite simple,
Ones you hear often.
Hence, today won't be any different.
So here it goes, “I love you!”
I love you, for carrying me in your belly.
All those nine months
Where I patiently grew,
Turned, and occasionally kicked
Here and there,
So you knew I was there.
Somehow, I think I knew too...
That even then, it made you happy...
And above all, “Thank you!”
Thank you , for not spoiling me...
Your “tough love”, is what made me
Into this strong independent being.
Someone I am proud to be.
For without you,
I wonder, if I would be the same...
Or what kind of person could I have been?
Because even when I fall,
Shattered, and beyond repair,
Like I never experienced before...
You were there to push me ahead,
With words that I can never forget.
Getting me back up to who I used to be,
A strong being that I am meant to be.
And so, along these lines...
I just wanted to wish you
A happy Mother's Day, mother.

I just wanted to wish you A happy Mother's Day, mother
