She Was...

This is just something random I wrote in after someone told me to write down my feelings after coming through a really rough patch in my life.

She was a phoenix,

Rising with flames for wings from the tragedy

Of still glowing ashes.

 

She was a survivor,

Of the sweet liquid death,

That numbed her mind like a thousand snake bites.

 

She was a fighter,

Standing tall against the bellowing winds,

That tried in vain to push her back down to the earth.

 

She was an angel,

Hidden in a disguise of illness,

Soon to find her halo in the destruction.

 

She was a poem,

Written by the hand of inspiration,

To sing in the ears of those who dared to listen.

 

She was a sacrifice,

To those who promised,

To stand beside her no matter what.

 

She was a mother to four,

A daughter to two,

A wife to one

And an inspiration to the world.

 

She was my mother.
