I thought I did the best I could possibly do for them, but I sit here and realize how much time I lost trying to make my (our) life better. I was a child myself when I was called "Mommy" for the first time, I took my burden to others and went away with no regret, 6 years in school and 9 years in corporate, all to be the best provider. There were times I don't know how I woke nor fell asleep, days I didn't remember from the exhaustion of life.
Never did I realize you would become my whole world,
Never realized how far we would go,
Never knew how much I would do,
Never knew I loved you so,
and I thought I loved you then,
I know how much I love you now.
Pain sets in my heart watching my world in your new world,
What I never thought I would see,
What I didn't prepare myself for,
Guess I thought you would be little forever,
and I thought forever would be tomorrow too,
My tomorrow is your yesterday.
I've done everything for you, all was for you,
I finally realize how this life works,
You live to find your half,
Your love,
You'll hurt,
You'll cry,
You'll break,
and I can only get that last time to cradle you once more,
and when it's over,
I'll watch you find your way,
Life might be rough, but worth everything,
And when you find your way,
I hope you follow your path,
Your dreams,
Your heart,
But most of all, your ALL, as that was all I gave to you, no regrets, just my ALL...
I forgot to realize all your going to do is grow in this world.
