You are forts and laughter and did you brush your teeth?
Loud, real, see through the facade, and fighting sleep.
So many questions - the biggest of all - why? Why? Why?
I never know all the answers, you let me slide with this.
Your mind never rests and it intrigues me to no end.
Also why are your feet always growing?
You are kisses goodnight and the smell of shampoo
The best, most hard, most holy thing I've ever done.
You call me mom. You made me a mother.
I'm supposed to guide and teach you but we both know
It's you. It always has been. Always will be.
You who teaches me.
