She is Your Mother

She’s weak but strong.

She’s terrified but brave.

She’s heartbroken but loving.

 

She’s in pain, but never shows you.

She’s crying, but hides her tears when you find her.

She’s screaming for help, but can’t accept the only way out.

 

She’s hiding behind loves deepest lies.

She’s hiding behind a future she can only dream for.

She’s hiding behind the love she only wishes she could have.

 

Why?

One word:

You.

 

She suffers through the love lost.

She suffers through the darkness in his eyes.

She suffers through the heaviness of his heart.

 

Why is she doing this?

Why is she still holding on?

Why can’t she let go?

 

Why?

One word:

You.

 

It is not her fault.

It is not what she wants.

It is not for her.

 

It is for you.

It is for your future.

It is for your life to be fulfilled, as hers wasn’t.

 

So, stop blaming her.

Stop hating her.

Stop ignoring her.

 

Do you not see her hiding?

Do you not see her suffering?

Do you not see that it is not her fault?

 

She cries all night, but supports you all day.

She makes enough for herself, but gives it all to you.

She questions her worth, but never questions you.

 

She is ready to crumble.

She is ready to fall.

She is ready to give up.

 

But, she stands up.

She covers her heavy eyes.

She faces another day.

 

Why?

It is all for one Word:

You.

 

Carry her.

Support her.

Comfort her.

 

And most of all,

Love her,

Because She is your Mother.
