A letter to my mother

Dear mom,

Remember when i was little

I told you i wanna be just like you

Daddy smiled at my words

And you enjoyed it too

I have grown up now mom

And I know I have let you down

Not once but a hundred times

But you never gave up on me

We had fights, i cried all night

I made you cry too, but you still fed me

Everytime you had faith in me

And everytime you encouraged me

All those times I missed your presence 

When I was about to perform on stage

I have realised how much you have done for me

I have realised how much you have given up for me

I have been mean, I have been heartless 

But you have always forgiven me

And all my mistakes

And all those nights when i cried in sickness

You stayed up and look after me

And all those days you were bedridden 

I made sure I took care of you

Just the way you did

I hope I am your reflection mom

I hope I am like you

Bless me, and love me

Just like you do

Forever, because I love you.
