You are my daughter,

So precious and true,

My love for you can never be left to wandering.

You are a wish, a dream i have fantasized, a being that was never to be recognized.

The doctors said my body could never conceive,

And God granted a blessing on me.

I knew of the moment of your conception,

I knew you to be a girl, a miracle no doubt

But your life, brought my own about

Made me a parent, yes …with a warning

And you have been my saving grace,

Without you, there would be no me.

You are my dream, my life, my everything.

even when things became too much

without you there would be no me,

I think God knew this when he gave me you,

because my life had no life until there was you.

A person, created from me, blood of my blood,

flesh of my flesh,

a twin Almost identical to me.

I give you the best part of me,

I give you anger, when i smart off, i give you courage to stand your ground,

I give you tears when all have failed,

I give you knowledge, to know it can all be worked out.

I give you love above all else, to believe in me, to believe in you,

to know love can conquer all doubts.

Believe in me like i believe in you, i will stand by your side no matter what you choose,

Because my love for you, is because of you,

A gift 

A blessing,

Someone i will never take for granted.

I love you for who you are,

with faults and flaws, and whatever else.

I opened my heart and arms at your birth, promised myself I would be always there to help.

So, take me for who i am, a mother, a friend, someone who loves you beyond all else.

I would die for you, take your pain and make it my own, only to spare you from life’s song that had been rewrote.

I love you, need you for who you are, proud i am to claim you as my own.
