Mother
I may not be good for many things
The days that cut one down came early for me
I may not have fancy cars and gold rings
But if you recall there was a time all those things were a could be
I may not have made you grand babies
But I'm really shy and was misled about women and dating
Still at one point I had beat the odds and made success were others just made maybe
I may not take all responsibility for my loss of a future and all of achievements tokens
But thats neither here nor there in this bit of word that need spoken
See mother their no one on this earth that gets my love more than you
I would tare down a building and take down an army
I would walk until I fell fight until I died what ever I had to
To save you from harm to get you better to get you home and near me
So from here on out regardless of anxiety or doubt
When you get ill you don't wait so long
From now on act more like your my age I act like yours
But both to worn down to push so hard even tho you feel you should
If I have to I will have words with whom ever is the cause
Of your restless efforts those who may extort your wishes
For time away from their things that need tending
So from now on you stay well because when your sick I cant keep clear vision
Bottom line is this I will always need the love you are always giving
And I will always protect your life and the way you living
But I don't ever want to see you so frail from illness
Because you waited so long to see if the problem was persisting
In conclusion I learned to make cards and I didn't like when you was sick
So I went long winded to try this app and this is the card that your getting
