I Love You

From the moment I saw you 
And your big eyes blue
I loved you

From the moment you cried
And scrunched up your eyes
I loved you

From the moment you curled your fingers
And in my hand it did linger
I loved you

From the moment a step was taken
And you fell, unshaken
I loved you

From the moment preschool started
And from my care you departed
I loved you

From the moment we walked out the door
And you were barely four
I loved you 

From the moment you got hit by that car
And took your little body so far
I loved you

From the moment your eyes did close
And you left me alone with my woes
I loved you

From the moment you took your first breath
And then until your death
I loved you

From the moment you did depart
And until the last beat of my heart
I loved you

From the beginning 
And until the end
I will always love you
