Life Will Not Change Unless You Change
Dedicated to my daughter Heather
Hello my dear one, I am here to say I care
I wish for you the world, but you must be aware
You will never become more, than you allow yourself to be
So open up your eyes, and listen carefully
I see the courage of a woman through the years I do admire
You speak and I will listen, with you I never tirer
If you could see what I do, and believe in yourself
It wouldn’t be long before, another you would help
Change your thoughts of habit, and live the life you dream
For it’s not so far out of reach, but much closer than it seems
Listen to your inner voice, let it be your guide
Stay away from foolish advice, it’s these things that makes you hide
Within you lives the passion, just waiting to be free
So trust in your heart, and let it be your key
People say they are your friends, but what you need to know
For if this in fact was the truth, your best interest they would bestow
Reach for your inner strength when life becomes a chore
Life is worth the effort, so dare to dream for more
Nothing is impossible, when your heart is in align
You don’t need anyone, to make your light shine
If there ever was a time for you, to be precise
Don’t let today get away, to meaningless devise
Your beautiful in all your glory, so be everything you are
And hold your head up high today; for there is help beyond the stars
This poem was inspired by my son Tommy {in heaven}
Tom is also Heather’s Brother & Best Friend
Written With Much Love and Respect,
Mom
