My Hearts Speaks

Mother

I never really understood 
the depth of your love until 
I became a mother to.
I have respect for you and
I love you very much.
The woman I am today is 
because of your unwavering
love.
I know if you could have 
protected me from the pain, 
I endured in my life you would
have because that's what
mother's do.

Kids

I love you so much. The heart
in my chest beats for you. I
never really understood what
love was until you came into 
my life.
I'm grateful to be your mother
and I couldn't have asked for
better kids.
Do some times you put my 
nerves on edge? Or allow me 
to experience every emotion 
up under the sun?Yes but that 
what children do and love you
very much.

Siblings

I know I may have not been the
perfect sister. But you need to 
know that I love you very much. 
That bond that we shared as kids
is unbreakable. No matter where I 
am or where I go you mean the 
world to me.
Do sometimes we still act like kids 
and stop talking to each other for 
something foolish?
Yes but that what siblings do.
And my love for you will never
change.

Relatives

I know sometimes we lose con-
tact with each other and don't 
know what's going on in each 
other's lives. But we are family 
and the love I have for you will 
forever remain. Do we finally
touch base and say we will 
get together soon? Yes be-
cause that's what relatives do. 
And that my dear loved one really 
has to change.

Friends

You all are so special. Truly a
gift from up above. At times
when I needed a shoulder to
cry on you were there. You get
me and accept for who I am. I
know I can be difficult at times.
Do sometimes I forget to tell you
what you mean to me? Yes be-
cause that's what friends do,
I thought you knew that I love
you very much and so glad
you're in my life.

Wonderful tribute to your loved ones that are close to you, Alexis. Love for children no words can describe a seed of you that you grew inside and carried for nine months is just so different. The love for family and friends , well you can take or leave it if they harm you their gone, but a child never will... Hugs Eve
