I know I haven't been all you wanted
Haven't fulfilled your dreams
I'm still wandering around figuring out what I want
As I am still in my teens
Hopefully in the next few years
I can make you proud of me
It's all I ever really want to do
Be successful just like you
One day I will get there
And I will be proud too
Of myself that is
As for you
I've always been and always will be
Looking up to you
You've done so much in all your life
It's crazy thinking of what you do
I brag about you everyday to my friends and other random people
They say I have a lot to accomplish
I tell them i know
You're smart and beautiful
Wise and protective (though you really don't need to worry!)
I can never find the words to say
How much I love and appreciate you
And I know i don't say it enough
And it may hurt you
But just know I'm here and always will be
If you need to vent or cry or talk
I have ears, eyes and shoulders
They can help you too
Just remember when I make a stupid decision
Or do something you don't like or want me to do
I'm still learning
And I will learn from you.
You're the one that's always been here
Even after I come home drunk
That night I don't remember
But you do
I thank you for being there for me
And not being too mad
Though I understand why you would've been
I have come to realize
Life is what you make it
So I'm gonna go and do those things
But that's just me.
I will be fine
Though I'm sorry if I hurt you
With the stupid things I've done
These past few months have been tough
With the mistakes I've made
You know what I'm talking about
I'm sorry I didn't listen
You weren't the only one trying to help
I was narrow minded and wanted to save someone that I couldn't
It was just too late when I realized that..
I'm writing this just so you know
And that you don't ever forget
I'm thankful I have a mum like you
To get me through all of my days
Love you.
