Brave
People say that she is strong and that she's doing her best
They call her superwoman and remind her that she's blessed
They tell her they're proud of how she's raising her kids alone
She never asked for this, she didnt know he would be gone
It's not love that she lacks
It's support that she seeks
Another adult conversation
Because it's been a hard week
But no one says "hello, how are you doing today"
They only tell her good job mama, you are so brave.
