I often wondered
how in the world
She knew
what I was doing
how I felt
what I said and
Why we always seemed to
Bump heads
Why I got
into the
Most trouble
and why she stayed on my
Case
I was her
Reflection
and she wanted to save me
from her
Mistakes
which confused me
Was I one of them
that she wanted so desperately
to correct
Was I a burden
a waste of her
Intelligence
Was I the
Reason
for the grief and the
Pain
She comes and holds me
and my thoughts begin to
Change
Nothing feels better
than crying in her arms
Knowing that her love
Protects me from danger and harm
She wants me to be and do
Better
Than the choices that she made
But when I look at her
She is who
I want to be
Elegant
Well versed
In touch with her
Femininity
Excelling to new heights
Setting a Divine example for me
No one could replace
the Knowledge
Time and
Love
That she has bestowed upon me
So I choose to love on her
Lyrically
