Unselfish Love

I was only three What a gift you had given me! A chance for a better life To grow up and be someone`s wife. You didn`t walk me down the aisle. Or hear me say those wedding vows. I remember the day they came for me Dad left the house leaving mom to pack for me. I know both of your hearts broke. My arms reaching and crying my heart broke. All those years apart. I carried my love for you in my heart. The parents I got are good to me. Thank you both for loving me.
