Brave Like You

I find myself not , eating, thinking, and sleeping Sometimes , not doing things right in my life The many obstacles , Im going threw Just to reach one goal The many blocks, I walk Day or Night Sometimes confuse on time Wishing it was a dream The moment , I heard You went to sleep All, I keep saying is Who , understood me like you For the many reasons I love you I appreciated everything, you did From the braveness, you gave my soul The gentleness, in your words For each teardrop, you wiped off my face Now, my teardrops seem to reach the ground While , I look in (Heaven) Praying your looking down Showering this fear off my skin Feel my feet They're so weak But , for you I get on my knees Singing and crying, to God That my angel is you So , I can whisper in your ear Mama, make me brave Brave like you June 8th 2012
