Baby You Can

My first day of school, you held my hand, and told me sweetly, baby you can. When I fell in love, for the very first time, you sat me down, and explained, there will be many your heart will find. As I grew older, and wiser with years, you were always there, guiding my decisions, showing me, how much you cared. When you grew older, and needed me, my heart was open, remembering the love, you always gave me. The tears we shared, between, mother, and child, I realized in my heart, you were getting so tired. The day you left me, you held my hand, and told me sweetly, baby you can.
