my mother

I learned from a broken heart,
I learned to love myself,
Through tears and heartache,
I learned to be strong,
life has to go on.
I sat in the rain,
Crying one night,
Looking for answers,
Asking for reasons,
"why me? " i asked god,
I was dead on the inside.
My mother was there through out my pain,
She hugged me and said,
" son life is what it is you have to be strong "
Everything happens for a reason,
Don't ever let life and people put you down.
I learned to love myself,
I saw what strength really was,
Every time i saw my mother,
She always was there for me,
A mother like no other,
She fought cancer like no other,
And in that moment of her last breath,
She said "son never give be strong the only person who will be with you forever is you so love yourself more than any other and you will see my child god bless you life will always get better".
Her last words i always hold,
In my heart forever,
I learned to love myself,
Thank you so much,
My angel from heaven,
God bless my dear mother.
