To My Son
I never appreciated my life until I gave you yours.
So, it could be said that you gave me life.
Allowing me no longer to live carelessly.
Stopping me from living my life daily.
You gave me a reason to want a future.
When dying was all I could see,
I found myself living in your eyes.
Looking at your face,
I know why I’m alive.
Because in you is where my life lies.
Reading this brought tears to my eyes. It is exactly how I feel about my son as well. I was such a lost soul at one time and now I have a definite purpose in life. He saved me from me.
Well Julie, I am glad I could bring a smile to your face!!! I must admit it is the best feeling in the world when you bring a beautiful child into the world!!!! <3 Have a great weekend!!!
