All I could Ever Ask


All I could Ever Ask

 

I want you to succeed 

because I love you

and I want you to breathe easy

because I want you

to scale the highest mountains

and swim the greatest seas.

I want you to do it

and do it with support from me.

 

Because I love you

your happiness is a neccesity.

Do whatever makes your soul sing.

Do it with love, grace, and beauty.

You were meant to do extrordinary things.

 

Most of all

because I love you,

you love me too.

That is all I could ever ask of you
