There are so many women <br />Who have wanted exactly <br />What you have many nights <br />Violently cried for. <br /> <br />Yet it comes to them <br />Quickly, and grows slowly. <br />A gift from mother nature, <br />Perhaps a god given right. <br /> <br />A trial of a thousand tears <br />And two broken hearts, <br />Yet you have had to travel <br />Across a million and one waters. <br /> <br />You deserve so much in the <br />Eyes of all those have met you, <br />Have crossed hearts with you. <br />But you feel yourself condemned. <br /> <br />I know one day you will fall <br />Into a puddle of complete happiness, <br />And smile so subtly, that only you <br />Can feel the warmth that hugs you. <br /> <br />You may encounter many defeats, <br />But none of them will hold you.<br /><br />Stefanie Fontker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/true-mothers/
