YOU
From the beginning you where there
The first thing I heard was your heart and your voice but I couldn't see you
You felt me and loved me before you saw me
When it was my time to come you rushed to the hospital
You almost lost me but I was strong and wanted to see you
You weren't going to lose me so easily
The words, looks, music, and animals that I knew was all because of you
I was small and you where mighty
I wanted to be just like you
As time grew my mind changed and I knew that I could never be YOU
Age came and so did my own idea of who you are
Years passed without you and then you show back up trying to be what I needed
I out grew you and your image no longer your daughter but your equal
Shortly after my own blessing was on her way it all became about You again
That call broke my heart
Soon you'd be gone but I wouldn't be able to call or talk
You would be out of any service a bird couldn't even reach you
No way to reach the person I suddenly needed
No way to be with you the way I needed
Sudden regret but no way to make it right
No way to say I Love YOU
