Her eyes reddenedEye bags narrating untold stories
Of her long winded days in the sun
Struggling tirelessly and fervently
Never a word of complaint
From her chapped lips and peeled teeth
Her skin callused
From the humidity and the wind
Perfection in a woman
There she goes
A skip in her step
A soldier in battle
A warrior full of strength
A lioness over her prideA shepherd watching her sheep
Look at her move
There's war in her eyes
Love in her core
Care in her soul
And purpose in her essence
Bearing the scars of motherhood with pride
She is all I have
And we are everything to herI know her whole world revolves around us
I know she doesn't eat unless we have
I know she goes to bed dreaming only of us
I know she wakes up every morning with thoughts of us leading her day
I know there's no one in the world
Who loves us as much as she does
I know, mama
I know
Your cries to God at night
Beseeching Him to keep us safe
Your fervent worries
Whenever we are sick
I know your fear of losing us
And it's funny because
Our greatest fear will always be losing you
We love you more than the stars and the oceans and the sands of all the earth combined
Your smile makes our day
Seeing you happy sends us over the skies
And even though all you see
When you pass by her
Is just another woman
Let me tell you a storyOf a soldier
A warrior
A lioness
A mother wolf
Perfection in a woman
A motherMy mother
