I don't know what id do without my mother
Without her wise advise
Without her loving arms
Without her sarcastic comments
Without her snide stares
Without her bold statements
Without her encouraging care

I don't know what I'd do without my mother
Because she's the only one who told us it was okay
That things would get better
Even after we were abused
And there was nothing she could do to fix it
But help us leave from that place
And help us cover up what had happened
Because no one should know what went on in that house
Because no one deserves to have those memories
And so we try to forget
And she holds us together
With her encouragement that we will get better
Even after our bruises have healed
To remind us that are scars are beautiful
And we are a new family
Thank you mom
I love you
And all that you've done
I don't know where'd we be without you
Never leave us
