Mama

Mama, I don’t know

everything you went through

but I do know

it was a lot.

And you had to fight

just to survive.

But look at you now.

You made it out alive,

and brought the whole family too.

We are all basking in the sunshine,

thanks to you.

Can you relax now?

Take your time now.

Carefully sit down now.

Inhale.

Exhale.

You are safe now—do you hear me?

I am safe now.
