Silent Sacrifice

She breathed through the pain, cried through the night. A storm in

her soul, but her eyes held the light. For a life just beginning,

a love that she'd give. All the strength in her bones, so a child

could live. Through every tear, every fear, she'd stand tall. She'd catch him

each time that he stumbled or fall. With hands worn and weary

and a heart beating wild. Her purpose, her dream, was to raise

her own child. Oh, silent sacrifice, no glory or fame.

Just a mother with love and her child's precious name. Every heartbeat and
