For my daughter

You'll never really know, my dear
Just how much you mean to me
A mothers love, buried so deep.
That only my heart can see.

When I sit and really stare at you.
All I can do is grin.
Somewhere down deep inside.
I see myself within.

I'd never change a thing in you,
I thank God that your so fine.
Even when your at your worst,
I'm so proud that you are mine.

The roads we have traveled,
were not always that good.
I would take back all the pain you've felt,
Only if I could.

I know that I'm not perfect,
It's the best that I can do.
