I Need to Function

I need to function.

How will I do so without them?

They're the strong base that holds me up,

In my dull life they are the shining gem.

Besides natures essentials they're all I need to survive.

The key to my life.

I will love them for eternity.

Through any strain and strife,

Because of them I suffer little pain,

They are the reason for my smile entirely.

I need to function.

And I can only do so with the presence of my Family.
