Love Poem: I Am Your Child

I Am Your Child

I am your child
Your flesh and blood
I don't ask for much
Just your love

When I have questions
I want to come to you
And get the answers I seek
That I hope are truthful, too

There will be times when I will challenge
The authority you hold
And you will hold me accountable
For being so bold

My moods may change
From time to time
And trying to understand those phases
Will boggle your mind

The parent/child relationship
Is not always an easy thing
It takes a lot of love and patience
And of course, understanding

So, there will be disagreements
And we may not always see eye to eye
But one thing that will never change
The love between you and I
