Stage of Unconditional Love

Sat, 07/13/2013 - 18:47 -- Jovon

Happy you made me
When I was mad at the world. Angry you made me
When you were mad at me. Your baby you made me
Always because I came second,
Next to the One. A friend you made me
When I sat in the shadows of my room.
Motivated you made me
When you said,
"Baby I'm proud of you and I got your back."
Workaholic you made me
When you spent countless hours working to support me-
Inspired you made me
When you shared our riches to the poor when we were homeless.
Merciful you made me
When you broke bread with your enemies.
Prepared you made me
When you said, "I'm not going to be here forever."
Loving you made me
When I was birth into a field with crop and tar.
Comfortable you made me
When you knew you were leaving;
Worried I was
When you laid months hospitalized,
Strong you made me
As Cancer synced into your bones;
But indestructible we became when you fell into eternal sleep.
