they keep growing

they keep growing

there is nothing i can do to stop it

i think so hard and try to find reason

to why i didn’t pay more attention in the beginning

people tell me it’s still the beginning

 

i see those moments now

the ones i will cherish forever

and remember long from now

i see them

i hope they see me

for who i was and who i try so hard to be

not for who i am now

hardworking

unavailable

exhausted

i try i really try

 

there is one thing

one thing i know as clear as glass

it’s that your not here

you never really were

those moments that i’m seeing

i’m seeing them all for myself

you will never feel

never see

never know

how they grow

how they hurt

how they happy

how they cry

how they eat

how they sleep

you’ll never know

 

those bring tears to my eyes

i am strong and realize that’s your loss

not mine nor their’s…

i’m here

i perform

i am reliable

i am responsible

i have always been here

i will always be here
