I have to learn to accept
That I will never one hundred percent
Understand my mother
Being bilingüe
Means speaking to my mother
In a broken Spanish
More of the,
“Hi mom ¿como estas?”
And answering
“I’m good, ¿Cómo están todo para aya?”
She will ask me si bebí mi ocho copas de agua,
And I would turn the camera to hide my smirk
From the screen
I did not
Drink my ocho copas de agua
To say that I have accepted
My broken spanish
Is an understatement
