🎵 “For the Mothers” – A Mother’s Day Anthem 🎵
(Poem structured as song lyrics)
[Verse 1]
You gave your strength when I had none,
Held the storms so I saw sun.
You stayed up late, you rose before,
You opened every unseen door.
From scraped-up knees to broken dreams,
You stitched the silence in between.
With every hug, you showed me how
To stand up taller than I knew how.
[Chorus]
This is for the mothers, near and far,
The everyday, unsung stars.
For every sleepless, thankless night,
For every wrong you made feel right.
You’re the heartbeat in our songs,
The reason we believe we’re strong—
And every child you’ve ever kissed
Carries your love, like this.
[Verse 2]
You gave your name, you gave your fire,
You built us out of hope and wire.
You saw us whole when we were cracked,
And gave us pieces we still lack.
Aunties, sisters, friends so dear,
You mother us just being near.
To love like you, we’re still in school—
You made the sacrifice the rule.
[Chorus]
This is for the mothers, brave and true,
The silent heroes we all knew.
For every worry you kept hid,
For all you did, and never did.
You’re the whisper in our prayers,
The lighthouse when no one cares—
And every life you’ve touched this way
Is blooming now—today.
[Bridge]
You are the rhythm in our breath,
The softest shield against regret.
Your hands have shaped the best of me,
Across the years, invisibly.
[Breakdown]
To every mother by any name,
Love’s the language, all the same.
If no one told you loud and clear—
You’re the reason we are here.
[Final Chorus]
This is for the mothers, everywhere,
For love that shows up, stays, and cares.
The ones who choose to give and give,
And teach the world how best to live.
You’re the story in our veins,
The sun that rises after rain—
And every time this song is played,
Know that you are deeply praised.
[Outro]
Happy Mother’s Day to you,
All the love you gave came true.
We see you now. We always will.
You are the heart we’re holding still.
