Every Step of the Way

Let me breathe for you,

inhale whispers of air,

infuse you with tomorrows,

lift weight from your shoulders,

return to you with love

the gifts you have bestowed,

cherish you and make today

worth living so you can go on,

free of the worries and burdens,

bear your pain for you,

lift your sadness of spirit

and struggle alongside you,

filling your life with daisies

and rays of sunshine

so you can brave

what the future brings

with courage and hope,

leaving a legacy of memories

for all those who love you.

Walk firmly into the night

knowing that I am there

every step of the way,

holding your hand.
