Family Is All


Family is all I need.

They are the bees to my honey.

My life wouldn’t be able to move on otherwise.

 

When I am sick, my family is always there.

The aroma of my mother lingers in my room while she is sitting by my side.

My father’s warmth circulates around my bedroom while we are watching tv

My sister’s support and love brightens the room I am in.

 

As a child, I had leukemia, but I am a survivor.

I wouldn’t have been able to overcome this vicious disease if it weren’t for my family.

They are the reason I am alive.

 

Without my family, I wouldn’t be on this Earth today.

Without my family, I would have no place to go.

Without my family, I would not be able to function.

Without my family, I would not be able to live.
