I was there
I was aware
A spark lit up
And I knew
Ohh I knew alright
My heart would never be mine
Again
You will never know
You could never understand
How you own my
Heart
How could you
Understand?
Tag motherhood
Change
Somewhere along the way
I changed from a young child
Into a woman
And observe with melancholy
Love and sadness
As the fruits of my womb
Do the same
My Son
My son
First from my womb
Growing up in the shadows
Of a baby girl
Turning into a man
Taking my breath away
Sparkling blue eyes
For all I’ve done wrong
I’ve been blessed
With a son
Like you
Silent Kisses
When I feel your body close to mine
When I hear your beating heart
When I know that you are safe
And no harm can come your way
I close my eyes and pray
Silent kisses for today
Motherhood
My heart is yours to share
Your burdens will I bear
I will love you for your life
And shield you from all strife
