Dear Mom,
Dearest Mother,
Dearer friend,
I thank you for being you, every mother’s day
This year I didn’t want to sugar coat anything
This year is my year of sorry.
I have not been who you believe I can be
I have not been able to withstand things
That would have made you so proud of me
I have not been as selfless as you
I have not loved the way that you do
I am your biggest mess
But, as a gift, know,
You did not create this
You created a girl with dreams
Ones she still believes she’ll one day see
You’ve made life so much easier
Than I can believe
I hear horror stories about other mom’s
And each time I am so glad you’re the one
That made me strong
Not through toxicity or competition for your love
But through patience, understanding, and
Catching me every time I fall
We don’t talk everyday
Or laugh every time we talk
Just know each conversation
Rekindles my thoughts
That you and your children
Will Never Walk Alone
So I’m sorry I have been so prone
To depression and anxieties out of my control
They make me feel like I have no home
And it aggravates me because I know
You’re one goal for me…
Is to be happy…
I can’t say I’m there yet
Haven’t truly been since daddy
But I have my own issues to sort out
And I thank you gladly
For your support with each step
And forgiveness for the
Decisions I’ve made badly
I hope one mother’s day I can give you what you want
I hope one mother’s day we are both where we belong
I hope next mother’s day, you are the same mom
I hope next mother’s day I don’t have to say I love you through the phone
Until then, just know you’re the one that keeps me going
Love your daughter,
In this melodramatic moment
