My Inspiration

"I'm often asked why I don't love anymore
It's not that I don't, I just care for one more
She's been there since day one it's true
And momma that's you
The emotional backbone of my life
You often tell me there aren't many women that are worth the strife
I don't know where I would be if you weren't as strong 
Grateful because you've been with us all along
Seen my ups and definitely my downs
Used to always tell us there was no need to frown
Telling us it's not as bad as we think
You always holdin' the boat up making sure we didn't sink
I never complained about what we didn't have
You showed us to appreciate the little things
I remember music being your escape when I would hear you sing
I knew you hurt more than we ever did & even that never stopped you
With your drive and positivity no one can top you
Those long hour days you used to work
Trying to show you what it actually was worth
The sacrifices you make I am forever grateful
You taught me to always remain faithful
This is why I work as hard as I do
So that one day you wouldn't have to
Seeing you smile means more than anything
I'm trying to repay you for everything
I don't tell you I love you as much you should hear it
With my heart you're the only woman near it."
