You Were Always There

My most important source of strength through the years--my mom!

From the beginning, you were always there,
You brought me into this world.

You made it a point to always be there,
Just for me, your little girl.

While away at work, you were still there,
Inside my heart you stayed with me.

When I needed you, you were always there,
Turning around, there you would be.

During my darkest hours, you were there,
Accepting me for who I am.

I made it hard at times, but you were still there,
Offering me your helping hand.

When I didn't feel well, you were always there,
Taking away my colds and flus.

How you did it I'll never know, but you were always there,
Just for me, your "Kinky-nu".

My entire life, you have always been there,
Loving me like no other.

I'm thankful to God everyday you are here,
My greatest gift: my Mother!
