The Agony of Motherhood

My inspiration to every mothers

By Taiwo EstherPublished 11 months ago 1 min read
Mother! The agony of birth

The Agony of Motherhood

My womb, a battleground

Where life and death entwine

A fragile thread, a delicate dance

Between joy and heart-wrenching decline

The weight of creation, a crushing force

A burden to bear, a lifelong course

The agony of motherhood, a constant refrain

A symphony of sacrifice, a heart in pain

The sleepless nights, the endless tears

The fears, the doubts, the all-consuming fears

The weight of responsibility, a crushing weight

A mother's love, a lifelong fate

The first contractions, the first cries

The first moments of motherhood's sighs

The agony of birth, the ecstasy of life

A mother's love, a lifelong strife

The months of nursing, the years of care

The constant worrying, the endless prayer

The sacrifices made, the dreams deferred

A mother's love, a lifelong burden

The first steps taken, the first words spoken

The first heartbreaks, the first dreams unspoken

The agony of watching, the ecstasy of guiding

A mother's love, a lifelong providing

The teenage years, the adult years

The constant letting go, the endless tears

The agony of separation, the ecstasy of freedom

A mother's love, a lifelong surrender

The empty nest, the lonely years

The constant remembering, the endless tears

The agony of aging, the ecstasy of reflection

A mother's love, a lifelong connection

The agony of motherhood, a constant refrain

A symphony of sacrifice, a heart in pain

But also a symphony of love, a heart in joy

A mother's love, a lifelong employ

So let us honor mothers, in all their might

Their love, their sacrifice, their endless light

For motherhood is a journey, of agony and ecstasy

A lifelong path, of love and sacrifice, of heart and humanity

Our mother is our idol
