Homegoing for Patricia White

To my best friend.

My Mother,
You are not simply the one who gave me birth, but you are what helped give me worth, which made life worthwhile. All the while not neglecting to be a friend of mine. Your life beauty defined; a warm place in your arms I would find, and the calming melody in your voice is where I would hide. You are the inspiration to an imagination that allowed me to create a reality from my dreams. From the love you showed me I built a home for you in my heart and it is there where you will stay to keep me along the way.
