Dear Mother, 
You always said, 
You hoped one day that I, 
Would have a little girl, 
One, who was just like Me,
Well, I did. 

Actually, I doubled my luck, 
I got two of them, 
Two, little girls just like, Me.
Everyday, I wake up falling in love with them
More than I did the day before…
I didn’t know love like that existed 
But it does and it came from the best parts of me 
I look at them every single night
When I tuck them in,
Sealing in the love you never gave 
As I have for eighteen years now 
I realize I was not the problem.
Merely the product 
Of the love you simply couldn’t give.
