My Dear Ashley
I know this amazing lady
Her high heels, made of steel
A fraction, she can solve it
Diffusing the ordeal
Either you love her or despise
There is no common ground
She's frank with good intention
A sweet or bitter sound
She adopted me when we met
Took me under her wing
Puberty was an evil time
A calmness, she would bring
We're growing older as people do
She helps me to understand
I can survive the ugliest storm
Even one not planned
She asks me how I feel
Listens intently to my reply
Doing all she can
To ensure that I fly high
People like her come seldom
She is an angel in disguise
Guarding my evil surroundings
Quieting my cries
3 children of her own
Full time job and trying times
But when I need her gentle words
It seems, her troubles all align
