For Ma At 2: 18 Am Las Vegas Time Poem by Bryan Alexander

how did you know
Id still be up around 2
not doing much not dreaming yet
but I'm always thinking of you

Its a miracle how you love me
without you I wouldn't survive
when I'm down and insecurity plagues me
you keep my dreams alive

you are so strong and persistent
sweet mother of mine
time and miles separate us
but your heart is always
close to mine

I don't know how you do it
but you keep my life together
strong as steel, an angels wing
I will love you the most forever

How can I say it best?
Ma, I love you and this last part may not rhyme
I'm sorry for every time I hurt you
and making my pain yours
but, I thank you a thousand times
you kept me from Hells doors

and when I'm selfish you remind me how to believe
that God is good
for he gave an angel to me
my mother, my savior

Nweni flower from Heaven
you are the rock that I build my dreams on
The anchor that binds me to Earth
and for everything God has taken from me
I'm blessed to have your heart and hearth

You embody everything that is good
In life, I know you understand
it may take time ma
but I promise you this
I'll make you proud
I'll do better than try, for you
I know I can
I'll always be your baby boy
Even when I figure this out
and your son becomes a man
