My Daughter, My Life

You’ve come a long way my child
I’ve loved you since your first smile 
Yes its true your arrival was hard 
Bestowed on you the road that was scarred 
But you’ve become such a strong young woman 
With a future ahead 
If you could just get those unworthy thoughts 
Out of your head 
Practice self- love and confidence 
Try to look to God for extra guidance 
Your life is all in your hands 
Careful with all your unforgiving demands
They leave you feeling down and overwhelmed 
Put your foot forward and be in control of your helm 
And try to remember you’re not alone 
Because companionship is right by the phone 
You’ll always be treasured no matter what you do 
There couldn’t be anyone else that loves you as I do 
God gave me the gift to give life 
And I thank him for that and never thought twice 
For this miracle he gave to me 
My baby girl
She will always be 
The center of my world
