To Be A Mother

So this what true love feels like?
A force of strength and power
A purpose to always be better
A reason to be the best
So this is what true love is
The will to always be good
The spirit to always show you care
And be patient because to me you are very dear
So this is what a miracle feels like
Satisfaction in your perfection
Gratitude because nothing can go wrong
Happiness in your presence; just knowing you are mine
So this is what magic really is
Your giggles and tender smile
Eyes gleaming with joy; blissfully enchanting
Huddled in my arms it’s up to me to keep you warm
Fragile and pure; it up to me to protect your innocence
The way u just made my heart melt; your tiny hands and feet moving frenziedly
Curiously touching my face I am captivated by your grace
So this is how it feels to truly care
Being there to dry every tear
Wishing away your pain when it’s there
No matter the burden I will bear,
Because I live just so I can always be there
For you I will do anything, give up everything
Because without you my life is nothing
So this is how it feels to be a mother
