May You Know That You Are Valued
Inspired by a moving storyline in a show.
May you know that you are valued

I wanted to pass on something
From my childhood memories
But all that I had left
Was sad feelings and broken dreams
Everything that I loved
Was destroyed or tossed away
Burned bridges and toys
Scorched emotions and betrayal
So, what do I have to give you?
What legacy do I pass on today?
How to be a better man?
When I'm still learning this with age?
I hope that you will feel
That you are truly loved and understood
That you'll be inspired and uplifted
By everything I say and do
For having hopes and dreams
Feeling loved and cared about
Having a place to call home
Is precious without a doubt
May you look back with joy
Feelings of warmth and happiness
May you know that you are valued
For being your own true self
