To the women who sacrificed their life To raise the ones who were carried in their bellies Who can be selfish, depressed, children To the women who care for a kid Who isn't even related to them But still becomes the shield of wisdom & spirit To the women who put themselves 2nd So they could see the one they raised run to 1st place And become a little star no matter the circumstance To all the mothers who care and raise kids Who will one day be the next Hollywood star The next Michelin chef The next president We thank you for being there For being our guide on life's tall mountains For being the shelter that cover us from the rain of depression For being the small flame when everything goes dark And even though we push you away And the volcano of anger erupts into distress When children scream at you for feeling hurt You all still care and protect us You wish hope and faith upon us every night You want the best for us And we should be better at being more thankful To the protectors that make life feel softer

The Protectors (Mother's Day Poem)
To the women who sacrificed their life To raise the ones who were carried in their bellies Who can be selfish, depressed, children To the women who care for a kid Who isn't even related to them But still becomes the shield of wisdom & spirit To the women who put themselves 2nd So they could see the one they raised run to 1st place And become a little star no matter the circumstance To all the mothers who care and raise kids Who will one day be the next Hollywood star The next Michelin chef The next president We thank you for being there For being our guide on life's tall mountains For being the shelter that cover us from the rain of depression For being the small flame when everything goes dark And even though we push you away And the volcano of anger erupts into distress When children scream at you for feeling hurt You all still care and protect us You wish hope and faith upon us every night You want the best for us And we should be better at being more thankful To the protectors that make life feel softer
For the mothers who give all they have to see their children thrive
