I know you can't learn from where I went wrong
And have to make your mistakes
But oh how I yearn for you to be strong
And able to live with heartaches
Live life caring, loving, being kind
Be true with all you meet
Remember sharing a happy mind
can make your life complete
Feel your emotions, accept then decide
How best to put them away
Find someone you trust in to confide
to help you on your way
Fight every fear, move forward somehow
it's the only way to feel free
your lives and whatever is here and now
Will find you a better place to be
I love you both, with all my heart
And hope you love with passion
Remember growth will make you smart
with feelings you never ration
Into the rat race, I'll watch you go
With tears but full of hope
Whatever the case I hope you'll know
A way to help you cope
And my final wish for you my dears
Is for your children to learn the same
How loving honestly without fears
Should be life's one main aim!
