There for us

For all the things throughout our lives that we have to do,

Time and again your there and always help us through.

You forever help us to plan, to cope, to deal and to face,

Both physically and mentally what ever be the case.

Hurdle after hurdle we repeatedly try to climb but we fall,

Although we bounce back up even if we have to crawl,

All because you give us the drive, strength and the will,

Although you yourself secretly suffer you try still.

You put your needs and wants to the bottom of the list,

Giving, kind, brave, loving is there anything I’ve missed.

Yes your straight to the point, indeed sometimes very blunt,

Honesty is a good thing but sometimes it’s all just a front.

To lock away deep inside the pain and hurt you often feel,

Hiding your true feelings as you think we couldn’t deal,

We know you watch us struggling and it breaks your heart,

But look on the bright side we’re all close and rarely apart.

A loving devoted close relationship is what we all share,

Deep down all of us know that this doesn’t compare,

But you give advice and cheer us up by making us laugh,

You’re the life and soul with silly dancing and acting daft.

You encourage and help us to do the things that we cannot,

And instead try to focus on the things that we have got.

Without you it would be a million times worse because,

Rain or shine you love, care and are always there for us.
