Mother -

Think this through,

Don't only think about you,

But of me too.

Give me the opportunity to show you,

To show you the box of surprises I can be,

To show you the bundle of joy I am.

You feel yourself sinking lower and lower

With each day I grow inside you.

But all I want is for you is to reach for the sky,

To dream endlessly,

And dive into the sea of the universe.

You can learn to love me

And you'll see,

you'll be filled with glee.

Let me live.

Let me put a beautiful face

To your breezy, melodic voice.

Let me see for myself

How the colors in the sky dance the sun farewell,

How the stars whisper our future,

How the way someone looks at another

can make their heart skip a beat.

Please,

don't reject me.

Get to know me and realize

what great memories we will have.

Mother -

Think this through,

Don't only think about you,

But of me too.
