They held my hand
Taught me how to walk
But not the path to tread
They wiped every tear
Taught me how to smile
But not how to face each fear
They stood by me
Taught me how to be strong
But not how when all goes wrong
They loved me
Taught me how to share
But not how to live without a care
N so one day I went up to them,
Life is not as easy as I thought it may
Yes, they said, its yours to carve your way !
