If You Were Gone From This World, I Would Still Be

Tue, 11/07/2017 - 09:46 -- EmilyJo

 It's because I have loved you

that I am me.

Though it's also true, 

that if you were gone from this world,

I would still be.

For though you have built me

shaped me, grown me,

I am my own.

A mother's love is one I've never had to learn,

I've always known,

and for that I love you, I hope that you know.
