Mother

On the 11th it is going to be 10 years since my mom died.

Mother.

We came from a different country, for a better life.
To only find out that my mother,
A woman, strong and brave was being,
Broke down by cancer.
She fought for years,
but it didn't go away.
My mother then was taken away.
I was young.
Too young to understand.
I yelled at her for leaving.
My mother, the only one I trusted.
Left me alone, with my father.
A man broken apart from years of trouble.
I was hurt by him and her.
I felt so alone.
Then my mother, my angel, she sent me a sign,
I was 15 when I realized, she was watching me from above.
I left my home of abuse, I was brave enough to return to visit.
Now 17 and 10 years have almost passed.
I visit the home where I grew up for years, I sit with my father and talk about
My mother, the angel, that still watches over me from above.
