We never Know



What our parents go through...
What it means to love us....
The best they can not knowing how to....
The best gift to mankind is to bring forth a child..
That looks like you are I ....
Who knows if your parent was even loved,
As a kid....
You can surely tell in all the things that they did ....
Being careful to give you acceptance, guidance at best..
That what separates good parents, From those who just want to show they brought something in this world..
Yet don't have the time to watch you grow....
Because they are to afraid to let their insecurities show..
A true parent doesn't care about bring right or wrong
They only pray that their child makes it through the night ...
For when this is done ...
With god there is so much more...
We never know....The things in our childhood,
we ask for our kids not to sow...
