9-Months (Dedicated to my Mother)

9-Months

I was cared by mother
Whatever she ate
I ate
Whatever she did with her body
I felt
I was one with my mother

She cared for herself
To care for me
She touched my soul
She could of not have me
She could of aborted me
She could of terminated me
In the womb

But she wanted
She wanted to care for me
As long as I live
In different stages of my life
She loves me
She wanted and still to protect me
From decieving x-wifes
Who cheat
Who wreck and destroy my life
She warned me

But she knew I  had to learn on my own
I had to go through it all
She is proud of me

She sees me Graduate from High school
She cried
She sees me go to Europe
She Hugged me
She sees me go to DC
For an Internship
She kissed me on the check
Told me to watch out for the ladies
She sees me get a Job and Full scholarship
To stay in DC to work for the Government
She cried; Knew I would stay in DC
That her life would change
She sees me graduate from UMCP with my degrees
She was proud
She sees me sell my first painting
She admired me and was proud
She sees me publish my first poetry book
She is proud
She sees me publish my secound book
She felt love for me
She gave me nine month
But it is more
SHe is my mother
She will be there for me...

Always for me
She knows I respect her
She knows I love her
I have a funny feeling she
will out live us all.
