For my sister/ mother

Hard working
Strong black sister
My sister
Mother
Empress
A queen

Giver of life
Backbone
Lover
Friend

You kept us together
When we wanted to walk away
You showed us what it means to be a family
And how we should stick together

My sister
My mother
A shoulder whenever I needed on
To cry on
A warm hug whenever I felt alone
You helped me to feel safe and secure

Never once have you turned your back
To my needs
You were always there for me
Whenever I felt down and out
You stood by me and showed me a way

When I thought
No one cared
You reminded me that you cared

9 months you carried me
Through the pain
And discomfort

Mommy
I thank you for giving birth to me
