Madre

"Our relationship, I cannot say.

Young I was, but her importance was never felt

until it was almost too late.

Nostalgia caught up with me as I remembered

the pain I put her through,

yet ever loving, she remained.

I know I can never, in ten lifetimes,

pay her back for everything she has done.

But in this lifetime, I dedicate my all

to giving her every joy.

Only recently was I able to look her in the eyes

back then, I took her as I would an ordinary lady.

Now, I could kill thousands for her happiness.

How I grew to love her this much, words cannot say.

Though I cannot explain how I came to love her this deeply,

one thing I am sure of: I will never love her less.

Siempre te amaré, mamá, en esta vida y en la próxima."
