A Love That Never Leaves Poem by Natasa To

A Love That Never Leaves

My mother, you are woven
into every part of me—
in the kindness that I carry,
in the strength I learned to be.

Your love was like a quiet light,
steady through the years,
a shelter in the hardest days,
a comfort through my tears.

Time may change the world around me,
and seasons come and go,
but the love I have for you
will never cease to grow.

You gave me more than words can say,
more than I could ever repay—
a heart that learned to love deeply,
and courage to face each day.

And wherever life may take me,
whatever paths I roam,
a part of you will walk with me,
because your love is home.

So if the stars should ask me
what love has meant to me,
I'd whisper your name softly—
my mother, eternally.

For years may pass, and worlds may turn,
but one thing will remain:
my love for you, my precious mother,
will forever bear your name.
