A mom and daughter’s bond are unbreakable
It’ll never be snapped
Never fades away
What would I do without her
She’s always there for me
Listens to my stories
Shares in my triumphs
And consoles me in my sorrows.
When I was small and scared
My mom was always there
She held me when I cried
And helped me when I tried
Now I’m all grown up
But I still need her love
She’s my best friend
And I’ll always be her daughter.
Mom and daughter, so close in heart
A bond we’ll never tear apart
You’ve always been there for me
And I know you always will be
You offer me your wisdom and love
And I cherish every moment with you
Our relationship is a beautiful thing
I’m so grateful to have you in my life.
A mother’s love is unending
it’s like a rose, with its thorns
but it’s worth going through the pain
because at the end, you’ll find joy
A daughter is a rosebud
There to be loved and cherished
To be watering with patience and kindness
For one day she’ll bloom into something beautiful.
Inseparable, that’s what we are
Nothing can tear us apart
We share a special bond, it’s true
No one knows me like she does
She’s always been there for me
And I know I can always count on her
She’s my best friend and I love her so
I’m so thankful she’s my mom.
