Without hesitation you sacrificed everything just to give us a better chance.

It was brand new to you and you were all alone but you took it on not giving a backward glance.

I won't sit here and lie, it was not a fairytale, but you did  the best with what you had.

My life has been an intricate web of memories, some beautiful, some confused and some just sad.

You, yourself, as a child were tossed aside, saftey  and love were things you never knew.

You found the courage to soilder on and for us you prayed you'd make it thru.

There were times when your sadness was to much to bare and it caused you to give in.

Like the time we came home from school to find that you had attempted the ultimate sin.

Even through  all of your pain, the one thing  I always knew was that you loved  us more than words could say.

And as I sit here now and write these words, even tho your gone, my love for you grows stronger every day.
