Mtanami my child
I know I can’t give you the life you desire, the perfect life
But I promise to give you the best times
And laughter
I can’t promise you bacon and eggs everyday but I promise to never let you go to bed hungry
I can’t promise you fancy expensive clothes, but I promise to give you clothes to wear with pride
I know I won’t be there everyday for the rest of your life, because death is near
But I promise to be there as long I’m breathing
For a mother’s promise comes true
