I gave you life
I watched you grow
How was I
To ever know
That when you left
You'd take my heart
It stays with you
When we're apart
It seems like an eternity
Between the times
You're here with me
I miss the days
When you were small
Now I hardly see you
Much at all
A treasured card
Sits in a frame
I've kept them all
They bear your name
The cards are special
You can see...
...But it's "YOU" that means
So much to me.
