Mama

My daughter.
 
My purple rose.
 
You are going to have trials
And tribulations.
 
You are going to have sincere
Smiles and adorations.
 
You will give your love freely
And it affects you deeply.
 
Your tears will fall with  
Seemingly no end.
 
The night will call to you
Looking for you to bend.
 
What I will say to you
With all my heart.
 
There is reason for you
From the very start.
 
I needed to love.
 
I needed to heal.
 
I needed your laughter.
 
And I need you still.
 
Your life is your own
And I am proud to be a part.
 
For when I leave this earth
You will always have my heart.
 
When those nights you feel you are alone.
 
Look in within yourself
I am your home.
