You gave me life
You gave me meaning
In this world I will stay
Until my time comes
I may not know
When or how
But I know that
My life has been good
Because you have made it that way
You taught me how to stand
You held me when I cried
You told me how pretty I was
When I thought I wasn’t
You taught me how to speak
I love you
Even though we fight
You will and always
Will be my parents
I love you
