Your First Born
As I look back to see, you weren’t always there for me
When it came to my deepest fears, you weren’t there to wipe my tears
But as the years started rushing by, I’ll have to say with a sigh…
You needed me just as bad and those times were so sad
And now that I’m older, I now know why you left me and mommy with such a heavy boulder
So I accept your apology because I know you’re sorry
You always seem to know when I need a smile, especially when you haven’t seen one in a
while
We know how to make each other laugh and it makes time fly past
Dad, that’s why I’m so thankful for you, I would never ask for anyone new
I love you very much because you try to help me with problems and such
I know you wish you could give me the world, but I’m proud enough with my title
“Your First Born”
