S

Mother

You taught me things
I didn't know
Some things I can tell
Some things I can show
You taught me control
I didn't even know
Sometimes it can blow
Sometimes it can flow
You taught me the truth
You taught me the lies
Everything that's here
Everything that dies
You taught me more
More than a school would
You taught me less
Less than a school should
You taught me to speak
When it was my turn
Don't just talk loud
But to listen and learn
Your the best teacher
The best of all preachers
To love all the liars
To love all the creatures
You taught me to be free
To not always agree
Not to conform
But to just be me
You taught me life
