I see you moping around the house like I wouldn’t notice,
Tears rolling down your face because you think  you’re hopeless.
You don’t want to be in this life anymore and I know you didn’t think like this before,
You had dreams that you were never able to achieve because you had to leave them behind to keep me and my siblings alive,
I can tell that you’ve been through some things and it eats you alive when you’re awake and asleep,
You’re in a deep dark hole that was created by the society around us, and now you carry depression all around you like if it was a jacket.
The oppression you face everyday doesn’t get any better and being undocumented doesn’t make it any better,
You pray to the lord to help you out of this hole, but it doesn’t seem to be working,
I can still see you crying even if you smile at me and my siblings,
I want to help you because you are the only reason that I am here,
so let me learn the cure to your diseases,
I’ll show you that you aren’t insane to me, and that I accept you,
I’ll change the world so others can see what I see, which is a mother who loves her children like no other
