She gives me strength

By whisperingchippewa

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

My mom seems so hard to get close to, but you would have to know her like I do. She's been pushed, she's been shoved, So that makes her cautious with her love. She will give so much, and hardly ever take, She never puts herself first, for heaven sakes. During bad times, I've seen her look and act so strong, As if in her life there is nothing wrong. So if she appears to be a person hard to get close to, I guess you'll have to get to know her like I do.                                   Debra DeLong                                 copyright 20012001, Written October 27th, 2001 © on Oct 27 2001 07:15 AM PST   0 • 10
