I Remember

Son, as I continue through this journey of life I remember I remember trying to help you grow with love, truth, and honesty I remember trying to help you find the right path with values, morals, and self worth I remember trying to give you dreams with hope and confidence I remember praying you’d be a father like me to shape your children into strong adults full of inspiration and dreams I remember trying to make you into me But now I know you made me into you I will remember to show love unconditionally with compassion and empathy I will remember that friends are to be treasured not only for their perfections but also their faults I will remember that life’s harsh lessons can make you stronger I will remember that love lost can be found with memories of love lived But most of all I will remember you in all I do for no one could touch my life as you did
