All the trials I've faced, figured the same was for you
Instead - You're a combination of all the greatness I knew
Having to endure all the pain must've tainted the truth
How could I be so imperfect & still be related to you
Disgusted by much but I've been amazed by your laughter
Used to question life on this Earth 'til I created the answer
I view life in a new light & it came from your purity
I was growing sick of the times, thank you for curing me
"A new life through your eyes", a quote I read from a book
But it hit home from the very first breath that you took
Before your warmth on my chest, this life would sicken me
I was so cold - Now your smile alone helps me define felicity
Never knew what hope was, I wish I've heard of it sooner
& I know now, the past that I had shouldn't determine your future
I wish I knew what I'm telling you, we were blessed w/ a blank script
& since I've seen your first steps - I finally realized what faith is
