Thank You Mother

I thank you mum immensely,

For the comfort you have always been,

For the tears you have always shed,

For the countless sleepless nights you had,

All in the hope of seeing your son succeed,

I reminisce the encouragements you extended to me,

Telling me that all would be well while all seemed at odds

Those were the moments I almost lost touch with the hard reality of life,

Those were the moments I contemplated ending it all,

But because of the beacon you were...... I lived to fight another day,

Thank you mum,

For selflessly offering me a back

To lean on,

Thank you for being a reason great enough,

To live for,

I will forever celebrate you mum
