Here are the wishes
you made on the stars
here is the education
that got you where you are
here is the vision
that only you see
its nothing to others
but its important to me
here's all the tears
you cried all night long
when noone did like you
and you were sick for your prom.
here's the power
you wished for from above,
its not a box of treasures
but its a box of love.
you made one for me
when you were just five
you told me not to open it
because it wasn't a surprise.
I don't think you noticed
but I really did try,
I sat and I opened it
and I started to cry.
Not because the box was empty
or that it was so small
Not because I was sad,
no, not sad at all...
I cried for a reason
and now you'll understand,
you gave that to me in my darkest hour
and now you hold it in your hand.
So baby please listen
to the words that I say,
I love you and care for you
more everyday...
I hope it will help you
in your time of need,
so that you can get strong
and fullfill God's deed.
I always will watch you,
I always will pray
you just remember that,
I love you more everyday.
Well, I have to go now
this note is too long,
keep this box handy,
I love you - signed,
mom.
