For You, Mother

2:24 PM Stephanie 0 Comments

You brought me here, gave me breath,
A gift so profound, it defies death.
Though love, it seems, was not your way,
Still, I owe my life to that fateful day.

You were young, perhaps unprepared,
The weight of motherhood left you scared.
Immature, lost in your own strife,
You gave me life, but not your life.

I’ve searched for answers, and maybe I’ve learned,
That wounds can linger, though bridges are burned.
Yet even in the pain, there’s room to see,
A hope for your soul, to be set free.

May your next journey be filled with light,
Where you find wisdom, and make things right.
May love and kindness guide your way,
And nurture the parts that led you astray.

I wish you peace in the cycles to come,
A chance to grow, to not feel numb.
For while we were strangers, mother and child,
I still hope your spirit becomes reconciled.

Thank you for the start you gave,
Though the road was rough, I am brave.
And when we meet again, if it’s meant to be,
I hope you’ve found the love you couldn’t give me.
