You may have birthed me in this life my physical mother yet I am not yours
alone to claim for I have been the daughter of so many others and I was not born to follow your path or your ways as I have my own journey here to take and I may be of your flesh but my blood it runs centuries deeper, a daughter many times named within soul the same, I am a child of the flame, a rebellious dreamer, my heart untamed, full of a fire that cannot be snuffed out or contained for still I have so much to get done, many more miles to go and future mothers to love……
