In My Eyes

In my eyes- an ode to my daughter
In my eyes you have always been
The most wondrous being I have ever seen
In my eyes even when you were small
You were destined  to grow up standing tall
In my eyes evene when you tried to be mean
I could still see the softness inbetween
You are my reason to carry on
Even when i feel weak i know i must  be strong
In my eyes I see you grow
I know the time will inevitably be
When you will move on in life and say goodbye my daddy
Remember once and for all
Even then
In my eyes you will always remain small
