I didn't understand at first I thought you were controlling That you worried too much That you didn't care

But now I see it You tried to guide me You were worried Because you did care

Now here we are After countless shouting matches After so many times I stormed off And none of that matters now

you worry you try to do everything you never stopped loving me you accept me as your daughter you always make sure I'm eating you always check in on me you care

That's why I love you That's why I'm proud to be your daughter That's why I'm proud to call you

Mom

Free compliments! Right here, just go ahead and take one No need to be shy, they're completely free

You're pretty You're smart You're handsome You're doing a great job

See, it's easy to compliment someone Find something you like about them Even if it's something small, there's something there We all need more compliments

You see, there are so many people out there that don't know how to take a compliment because they've never been given one or they received the same ones over and over again and don't believe there's anything more to them

So please, take a compliment Let it build you up and when you're finished with it Be sure to pass it on

How to listen How to support How to accept How to understand How to heal How to learn How to love

What I learned from my family

Who has listened Who has supported Who has accepted Who has understood Who has healed Who has learned Who has loved

For you I will always Be thankful

#Poetry #MyBeautifulSky #Family #Love

You can tell me that who and what I am is wrong but I won't let it get to me

You can ignore my feelings while rambling on without end but I will still try to listen

You can refuse to consider what I or anyone else wants but I will still ask what you want

No matter how you yell No matter how you argue No matter how you hurt me

I will remember

You're learning You're growing You've got a good heart You will always be my baby boy

And I will never stop loving you

They can make you laugh They can make you cry But you never know which one They're going to do next

Maybe you'll be happy Smiling and laughing together The world full of bright color

Maybe you'll be sad Heartbroken and numb The world cold and empty

You don't know which one There's no way to know what happens next You just have to jump And hope for the best

I guess that's why they call it “Falling in love”

This family taught me how to love with my whole heart without exception or condition without ending or faltering

This family taught me how to accept those who are the same those who are different those who I can't even understand

This family has always been here for me no matter the circumstances no matter my mistakes or faults no matter how I change and grow

This family will be a part of me forever until the end of my life until the end of time until everything fades away

I love This Family I accept This Family I will be there for This Family I will be a part of This Family

Forever

When I was sick You'd whisk me away To adventures with your friends And make it a good day

There were lessons to learn There was wisdom to teach A world of simple joy All within my reach

We bounced and trounced We worried and pondered We celebrated and whooped We gazed and we wandered

I'll never forget those times No, I wouldn't dare All the adventures in your woods Me and you, you silly old bear

#Poetry #Childhood #Joy #Love

You can fly o'er the mountains, fly o'er the sea Little baby bird, won't you fly home to me You can see all the flowers, you can see all the bees Little baby bird, just come back home to me

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

There are no actions you can take no choices you can make no words you can say no games you can play

That will invalidate how you feel

Even if you think you blew it I won't give up, we can work through it Give me time, give me space Then let us talk face to face

And I will listen to how you feel

Your feelings are valid and important I know how easy it is to forget it I hope in time you come to see How special you are to me

I care about you and how you feel
