No love can compare to my love for thee.
Unconditional, everlasting, And rooted within my soul.

You gave up everything for us.
Dreams, sleep, serenity, true love.
All of it transformed to chaos.
A chaos that is eternal.
A chaos in which my name represents.

You carry a burden that non other could bear.
A burden that I am forever in debt to.

Stripped of love, the world had been,
Until the grace of your voice reminds me who I am,
I am your son.
As much your guardian as you are mine.

You gave me life,
Something none other could achieve.
Something I could never dream of changing.

Because of you, my faith prevails.
When I stumble, you catch me.
You put me on the path in which I stride.
You created everything that I am.

Through pain, sorrow, triumph, and bliss,
You were there to hold me steady.
You morphed me from dust,
You made me who I am,
Something that I take pride in.
Something that I hope, you too, can be proud of.

You are my creator and my fortress,
My shield, and my sanctuary.
None other could ever take your place.
For you are my Mother.
My one and only.
The one person who has been there since day one.
The only person who keeps me from losing who I am.

You are part of my soul,
From the deepest, most inner core.
We are bound by nature,
And by love.

You are my Mother.
My guardian angel.
My one true love.
I wrote this for Mother's Day last year and hid it in her nightstand. This morning was the first time my mom ever found it and called me in tears. I figured I'd share it with more people since it is kind of relatable.
