You've been wanting to know
You want to hear from me
I love you too
You lure me here
I’ll never forget you
You want to know what I think
Truth be told:
You’re the daughter I always dreamed of
You say how
Age does not know the soul
In another lifetime,
I hold you and kiss your forehead
Make your lunch
Send you to school
Cook your dinner
Turn the heat on
So you stay warm
You’re older than me
But you let me mama you
Thank you dear soul
Be held in our distance
I worry you’re cold
You win, you think of me
I lose, I think of you
You lose, you think of me
I win, I think of you
You think I would reject you
You’re braver than you think
Take a leap
Set yourself free
I want you to be free
Our story isn’t over
Our veins speak to this story
Blue vessels signaling the same
It wasn’t supposed to be this way
You know this inside of you
I know this inside of me
Let’s tread slowly this time
Then no one is scared
But you have to teach me
If you don’t, we get nowhere
I would never shame you
Your feelings, I accept
Think of me
As a page in your diary
Your feelings tell a story
One day
I want you to know,
You are:
Safe
Protected
Worthy
Precious
Gold
More than your body
I've seen you when I look into your eyes
I love her
