Sometimes I feel trapped
by my own decisions
Times I said “Yes”
when I should have said “No”
Times I was silent
when I really wanted to talk
Times I said “Sure”
when I meant “Nope”
Times I stayed
when I really wanted to go
Times I said “OK”
when I wanted to say “No way”
Times I smiled
when I wanted to scream
Times.
So many times.
But here’s the thing
I must remember
I can change my decisions
at any time
and I’m never really trapped after all.

I remember
the moment of enlightenment
the moment
I first realized
Mom was also
a woman
Just like me
Learning
Growing
Doing the best she can
making the best decisions
she knows how
A child herself
raising children
showing them love
giving them confidence
teaching them faith
believing in their dreams
A woman herself
who laughs and cries
sometimes insecure and unsure
with hopes and dreams
beliefs about life
and all that it’s meant to be
Just like me
