Poem for my son

I didn't create this poem, I just changed the words to fit my story.

For Theo

I searched my heart and soul and mind

Because I love you.

I cried myself to sleep many nights

Because I love you.

I looked long and hard for your parents Because I love you.

You now have a mommy and a daddy

Because I love you.

You have cousins who cant wait to hold you and play with you

Because I love you.

You have loving aunts and uncles

Because I love you.

You have grandparents who are so proud to call you grandson

Because I love you.

There will never be a worry about how to feed you

Because I love you.

You will never be told, "sorry, honey, there is no milk"

Because I love you.

You wont have to keep wearing the clothes you outgrew

Because I love you.

You wont have to move and attend many different schools

Because I love you.

You have a stable home environment

Because I love you.

You will have a backyard to run and jump and play in

Because I love you.

Your life wont be a struggle

Because I love you.

You are surrounded by people who love you Because I love you.

I let you go

Because I love you.

I can live with this

Because I love you
