My son

I see him layin' there
With his big brown stare
Love in his heart to share all around
Even tho they have him layed down
He wakes each day to breathe again
even when there is no wind
His body fights against him
He tells it not today
For everyday of his living life
He ignores the pain and keeps up the fight

My son your sick we know
Your breaths are no where near our own
Yet I am thankful for each day

Because your heart has shown me
that life and love are within me
You have taught me how to live
To be thankful and to give
That my life is much bigger than me
and that my God loves me

My son your so young
So much more is to come
The world is unknowing of your disease
Just of your joy and love to please
You walk everywhere with a smile
But your mama knows all the while
How sick you are and how much you fight
How every treatment, every night
Takes time and fun away from you
But this is what you have to do
So you can wake another day
To look at the world and say.....
Here I am, You won't win
This sickness may destroy my body
But never the person I am to be

Mama I'm sick you know
My breaths are no where near your own
Yet I am thankful for each day

Because your heart has shown me
that life and love are within me
You have taught me how to live
To be thankful and to give
That my life is much bigger than me
and that my God loves me
