Thanks For Being There
Why am I here in this place and what purpose to I serve?
In the end, everyone just wants to know what it all meant.
I’m no different than those around me that I observe.
I love my family and the time with them that I’ve spent.
We all have our place somewhere in society.
It took me years to figure out where I belong.
My life sometimes feels like a distant memory,
But I won’t give up, and I will try to stay strong.
I’m glad to be surrounded by people who love me
And I want them all to know that I feel the same way.
I want to thank, in particular, Charlie.
You put your life on hold to come up here and spend the day.
That one day turned into weeks, then months, and now a year,
And you’re working so much more than one should expect.
I may not say it, but I’m glad to have you near.
I’m very proud of you and you have my utmost respect.
To answer the question at the beginning of this thought,
I now know why I’m here and the purpose I serve.
It took me awhile to find the answer that I sought.
I’m here to teach you what I can, and then just observe.
