Sweet Mother

My sweet mother
My living father
My moral adviser
My original caretaker

She's all that matters
The best in every weather
My conquerer
My defender

She knows my weakness
And my pain,
She knows my keeness
and my gain,

She starve to see me eat
She's worried whenever I'm late
She stay awake to see me sleep
She knows me to my deep.

She cared for me
She can stand death for me
She nutured me
And this is me
