Always been there for me
You were the tree , I was the fruit
You were the  shelter of my mind ,
Always pushing me to get back on my grind
I was the definition of kind
Too shy to face mankind
Too scared to decline
Similar to a Chrysalis  stuck in his shell
Refusing to hatch
You told me once,  audacity is the key to success
Wasn't making progress ,but still trying to impress
You showed patience and love , similar to a guardian angel
Showing the path to go in ,
You were the rails I was the train
Now is the time to tell you how grateful I am
The little boy you raised became a  man .
