This new life This new responsibility This dependency This is important Better have it together
So small and fragile Woman now turned Mother Man now turned Father They don't have it together They don't even know who they are
Still fragile but not as small My world on their shoulders My lessons from their voices Their lessons come like an echo Hiding their scars and their pain The heroes never hurt
Look how much you've grown They see it too Your world is growing It is heavy on their shoulders You are starting to see it Too tired to cover their scars
You're almost big enough to reach your world Anxious enough to want to carry it Not knowing how heavy it is They know it's weight They don't let you carry it
You're fingertips away but you look at them Look at how tired they are Carrying your world You start to understand the weight
It finally happened You are carrying your world It's weight almost crushing you You finally understand They haven't let go, not yet
It's time for you to carry your own world As they slowly let go You feel the full weight You feel how strong they are How they never let it crush you

So amazing this truth that you tell. In the words so many parents search for, but so few can find. You tell the tale of life within your story strong. So close to the sun, with feet on the ground. I really enjoyed this, and am thankful for your insight. Great write, P |
