Mother to Child

As you keep growing in me

I get more anxious

What our lives will be like

And will you love me enough?

I am scared that I won’t been enough for you
And that I have to do this alone
It’s not what I imagined it to be
It’s not how I imagined us meeting
But I have to be strong
And try for both of us
Because at the end of the day
All we have is each other
I shall nurse you, clothe you and feed you
For mother is protector
Mother is God in the eyes of the child
So I shall guard you jealously
And give you every ounce of love I have
For only you are deserving
You are me
You are a part of me
So my child
Know I will always be there for you
Till my flesh fails me
