Her plates were unfavored
Childhood tragedy
Emotionally tossed without capacity
Apathetic mentally
Depression neighbored
Tailored,
Without clemency
Pain perpetually layered
Babygirl’s vision, unwavering
Ran to the wrong hands
Abandonment rushed her feet into catering
Single digits,
Two hadn’t reached discovering
Tied the knot,
Extended pedigree
Her mom failed parenting incessantly
Created a road of penalty
Mom gave what she had
She too, starved elementary
Depleted mother syndrome,
Tended to herself to prevent burnout
Read parenting books
Determined;
Succeed in shifting turnout
Took a different route
She didn’t look like her battles
Broke the cycle;
Freshly carried a new mantle
Indulged in motherhood
In this house,
Love —was finally understood.
