Her bare hands fed me
Clothed me
Cleaned me
Protected me.

Her face the first face I saw,
Even when she was a total stranger
I wanted to be near her.
I didn't know her name
But I could feel her warmth and love

I know I am not worthy of
The countless nights she lied awake for me
I know I cannot repay her
For all the things she has done for me

Whenever I needed comfort
She was my blanket.
In the coldest winters,
She was my fire

Yes, she's my mother
The woman I always look up to
