I know you can't hear me But I want to tell you What lies ahead For us

People won't understand you They'll label you as troublesome They'll keep telling you to try harder They'll make you angry because they think it's funny

They'll cast you out And drift away And you will feel like there's nowhere that you can belong

You'll twist yourself into a bizarre shape Not you, not anyone A perversion of what you think others want Never quite what you want to be

You're going to get tricked and betrayed Hurt and abused You'll end up feeling so hopelessly alone You're going to want to give up so many times Before you finally see what you've been missing

You're going to find the person inside you That you will love with all your heart A person you will proudly show on your outside every day, without reservation

You will embrace what you love Your interests, your passions And find the people that accept them That accept you

It's going to take a lot of pain A lot of loss, a lot of heartbreak But one day, you will know acceptance You will know belonging

You will hear your voice and love it You will see the real you in the mirror And finally be able to say without reservation or doubt

I love you My Beautiful Sky

I fell to pieces Crushed under the weight of life

I didn't know what to do Lost Scared Alone

I wanted to end it all to give up to bleed my life away

But I am still here

I didn't carry on for anyone else to finish some project for the sake of responsibility

I am here

for ME

I am growing and I won't give up on that I am finally me And I will live to be me

I am beautiful and bright I am Sky Starlight

And I am still here

The wonderful thing about Sky She's a wonderful, wonderful thing Her heart's made of stardust Her soul's made of spring She's a kind and loving, warm and caring beautiful magical girl! But the most wonderful thing about Sky is she's the only one in the world!

From the moment I held you I loved you with all my heart I promised that I'd do my best Even though I was so lost

Days turned into years You changed so fast The little boy I knew Has grown into a young man

We may argue and yell We so rarely agree But that will never change how much I love you

I see the best and worst of you Holding you always in my heart No matter how you change I'll always love you, my baby boy

Now you're leaving me Seeking a life you can't have here It breaks my heart to see you go But I know deep down, this is for the best

Thinking of what's best for you Even when it doesn't include me Rips out my heart But that's what it means to be a parent

I'll always be there for you I promise that now and forever I know this won't be goodbye Just the start of a new chapter

I hope this journey helps you grow I hope you find what you're looking for Know that I'll be here waiting for you And loving you always, my baby boy

Love It came and went but the love I have for me will never fade

It’ll take days, months, years To search and discover who you are You may find out in your backyard Or you may have to travel quite far

When I was asked to care for you I didn't think I'd be able to I had a lot going on But I still couldn't say no

You were excited or sleeping There was no in between Even when your energy was too much I still couldn't say no

For the innumerable times when you were there Exactly when I needed a friend Cuddling me when I was sad or sick I'm so glad I said yes

Even though you're gone And there's a hole in my life I look back on our time with love and joy Forever grateful that I said yes

Mistakes are inevitable You can’t avoid or escape them They are the foundation of your growth You are a flower, they are your stem

This label I was handed left me alone and stranded because it doesn’t fit the real me this isn’t what I want to be

You think there’s so much wrong with you That no one could possibly accept the real you So you bury it all deep down below Where no one will ever be able to go But despite everything “wrong”, you can still sparkle Because you see, all of this is completely normal
