To you, for carrying on even when your heart was being ripped from your soul
To you, for being the best mother to a child that needs you more than we can ever imagine
To you, for fighting a battle that is unfair and cruel and that I know has torn the sparkle from your eyes
To you, who turned a horrendous negative into a beautiful positive
To you, who stayed for all those years . I understand now
To you, who anxiety tried to drown,
To you, who is waking and facing the dark beast everyday through red stained lips
To you, whose knowledge and need to help others inspires me
To you, who blames yourself for something that can never, ever, be your fault
To you, who came out the other side and got your fairytale
And to you, who made me realise what ‘I’d die for you’ really means
I salute you
The Heroines of my world xxx
