I want you to know

Dear Brianna, 

I've seen things in my life

Others would never understand 

I've seen alcoholism 

Develop firsthand 

I've seen families driven apart 

All because of a broken heart 

But I'm here to tell you today 

That hope is on the way 

It won't heal overnight 

But get better with each new daylight

I want you to know that you are enough

Even when the going gets tough

Look in the mirror

See yourself glimmer 

A women ready to face

Whatever life throws at her
