All I need


All I need is to see her perfect little face,

to escape from the dangers of the human race.

All I need is for her heart to keep beating fine,

to make me feel like I have hit a goldmine.

My perfect little baby has grown into a toddler,

All I need is my daughter and her father.

All I need is to graduate high-school,

and then I will be able to provide for you.

All I need is for you to see that mommy is trying,

and how sorry I am when you watch me crying.

All I need is to not be looked at like a bad mom,

because I am young enough to go to prom.

All I need is to walk that stage,

to make me feel like God has turned the page.

All I need is to see her smile,

and know that the stress has been worth while.

You are all I need and more,

Annabella, my beautiful baby girl.
