Only I Can Say

Your first step brings so much joy to me This is the first sign that you can do things by your own I am happy and also scared when you start to walk What if you fall, what if you cry Only I can say it’s part of your GROWING When you first entered the school I am so worried you will not like it What if you fail, what if you cry Only I can say it’s part of your FOUNDATION When you succeed to entered college I am so proud and grateful I am frightened of who is around you What if there is pressure, what if there is stress Only I can say it’s for your FUTURE When you finally became an adult I am so blessed you grew up a good person I am scared what life will brings in you What if there is too much risk, what if you are depress Only I can say it’s part of LIFE When you settle down I am so happy you made it perfect I am not scared anymore You grew up strong Now that I am old I love looking at you I am not scared when I am no longer with you Only I can say I gave you EVERYTHING that I could I LOVE YOU my child.
