Tara's response to No Apologies No Apologies

Tierra,
I love the way you write poetry like i told you before i can hear everything you write as a song especially this poem, it has so much power and feeling to it, I loved it!!!

I think this poem is about a mother doing drugs (coke) and she was diagnosed and ended up dying with AIDS. SHe had just given birth to you or whoever the character is in the poem. I don't think that you're necessarily angry with her i think you just wish you had her in your life, and just wonders what your life would of been like if she raised you, and maybe you just wanted that mother, daughter love.
"Now all i got left is to choose the right road and equipped bags,"
"So its easy to carry my load."
I think you are talking about drugs again because you have to choose the right road, or to get deeper in thought maybe you have nowhere to live and you are just walking around thinking about everything that has happened to you.
"Man a soldier we lost."
This line confused me because I'm not sure if you are using soldier in reference to your Mom just being a strong person and fighting hard. I'll be interested to hear what you meant by this.
