Last Gift
From day one to date
You fought endless fights
To give me the gift of life
You always said
My child I don’t want you to suffer
Because one day I’ll depart the earth
I want you to continue without me
Be a responsible child and freestanding
That will make me enjoy my last gift
A fancy sendoff will not save my life
Knowing that you are capable
Might increase my days under the sun
Your words still haunts me to this day
Every time they cross my mind
I’m energized to do well
I hope that my success
Reveals my sincere gratitude
And present to you, your last gift
