God's Gift
GOD'S GIFT
When no one was there for me
you always carried me.
Even in my darkest days
you didn't leave me; instead you stayed.
I now understand the love
that two parents can hold for one.
It doesn't matter what I look like
or where I'm from...
So thank you for pushing me
and making me believe
that I can do anything in life...
For you I will succeed.
This year of 2009 has been most special to me.
I no longer have that void
that I've carried for so long, for now I can proceed.
I will proceed with my goals and my dreams
with my head held high.
Because of the love and patience you
had for me, I know there are no limits...
I must reach for the sky.
Thank you for loving me unconditionally.
For you are the greatest gift that God could ever give to me.
