You think no one sees the sacrifices you've made;
The desires and decisions you've delayed,
But I do, my child.
You think no one sees the tears you've cried,
Alone in your bed at night.
But I do, my child.
You think no one knows about your desires;
How you try to ignore the fires,
But I know, my child.
You think no one knows how tired you get;
How easy it would be to just forget.
But I do, my child.
You think I'm too far away to see you;
Too distant to know the truth.
But I'm here, my child.
You think you're not important enough
For my time and attention and love,
But I love you, my child.
You think your burdens are too much;
That I'm too far away to touch.
But I'm here, my child.
You think I don't feel the pain you feel today;
That I don't care enough to take it away.
But I care, my child.
I tell you only on the other side of pain
Can you see the strength you'll gain.
Will you listen, my child?
I never told you there wouldn't be a thorn
With the rose, that you wouldn't feel worn.
Did you listen, my child?
I could give you what you think you need,
but that would only choke the rose with weeds.
Are you listening, my child?
for I care, and I truly know your heart,
Even though you feel it's been torn apart.
I've been listening, my child.
You have to be still and quiet to hear.
You have to try to feel me near.
Are you there, my child?
I know you wouldn't trade your past,
For you've learned lessons that will last.
I've always been there, my child.
To change things would be to change who you are;
To lose the strength you've gained so far.
But you're still mine, my child.
I only promised to give you the strength you need
To fight your battles and kill the weeds.
But you knew that, my child.
