The joys of motherhood
The will to fight for all that's yours
The will to feel the undying love
The tears
The pain
The love you feel when the warrior is in sight
Children
An extension of mothers very own personality
A mirror of their very own image
The strength is there
And you swear that no matter what you ain't letting mother down
You promise to be strong
You promise to keep the warrior's blood in your veins
And as life goes on and on you try
Sometimes you loose it all
Sometimes you win again
Then you pray and work
You want to keep winning
You want the smile to be forever
So you try
You believe you can
And you fight then you win
They came again
With guns,matchets and all
I was playing outside
When I heard mama scream
One by one I watched people die
Despite the pandemonium
Mama still saved me
Hugging me tight
She took the bullet

Now the guns have stopped
Death's messenger refused to take me
I lay on the ground but they still take me away
I pray for death but it doesn't come
Everyday of my life is decorated with fear
Pain becomes a lifestyle
Tears become an anthem
Hunger becomes my best friend
I want to blame mama
I want to scream
But nothing comes out
Day by day
I watch as I become a shadow of myself
I am just a child
Broken,hurt and alone.
