Because I Love You


  •  Son you are my oldest and I need you to know,
  • the world is cruel, unfair and love, it will not show.
  • It will chew you up and spit you out.
  • Don't hold your head down and pout.
  • Stand tall and do what you do
  • I tell you these thing because I love you!
  • You are going to have friends to come and go,
  • your loyalty and respect will always show.
  • Treat others the way you want to be treated,
  • in the end, happiness will not be defeated.
  • I pray God sends you an honest crew
  • I tell you these things because I love you!
  • Our family is chic and small,
  • but the trust and friendship outweighs them all.
  • We hang in there through thick and thin
  • with God’s love we will win!
  • A healthy relationship is something that can't be bought nor sold.
  • It is forged, created into a mold, a bond that you should hold.
  • Doing what is right by someone without being told.
  • It's safe to be honest, it’s ok to be modest
  • There's no need to be anxious because you're allowed your frakness.
  • There are several people in my life, that I honor and respect,
  • those I trust and confide, and who I would never neglect.
  • Love in relationships don't always exist
  • but all of the above,
  • a healthy relationship consists.
