From My Heart
October 6, 2011 at 1:27pm
and every day I find more
that I never knew was there.
I have taken you as far
as our money will take you
in the medical world.
I have tried to get you beyond the scope
but "experimental" is out of reach,
they don't see the NEED!
I have promised you, FOREVER, I will
help you cope...
and I will NEVER stop fighting!
You have come so far, my sweet child,
Oh, if you could only see what I see.
You have succeeded beyond the experts expectations
but you only feel failure within.
You have cried and begged for another brain,
but you are so highly intelligent
you don't realize where you can go!
I have watched countless tears
I couldn't wipe away
because you couldn't let me near.
I have missed an abundance of hugs
because you couldn't be touched.
I have missed thousands of smiles
because you didn't want to be looked at.
I have seen countless physically, scary meltdowns
that have left me helpless and broken,
scared for your life!
Then magically I see these days,
the light emitting, total radiance,
it's in your eyes, your smile, your laugh....You are home!
I know now, I can't fix you....
there's no fixing to be done.
God dealt us this hand
and he will provide.
We just have to follow the path
that will take us there.
We will show the world, as God intended,
that you are not broken.
First, I have to show you,
Your worth,
Your beauty,
Your being,
Your love,
Your heart....
That SCREAMS....."I am here!"
