I was watching you sleep the other day,
and prayed that it would last.
The peace that rested on your face,
Id never seen in the past.

I was watching you speak awhile ago,
and hoped that you'd go on.
The way your words, they had no end,
your spirit seemed so strong.

I was watching you fight the other day,
and prayed my tears would dry.
All this, I knew was done for me,
and I couldnt figure why.

I was watching you smile awhile ago,
and stared in total awe.
Was it me who mad you shine?
Was that triumph that i saw?

All this time you've waited,
and all this time you've helped,
and all the things you sacraficed,
for me to grow up well.
All the tears you dried,
and all the pain you've soothed,
and all the truths you had to hide,
without a simple thank-you.

But I was watching you the other day,
and I realize I cant wait,
to tell you how much I appreciate,
and love you in every way.
