I need to tell you: I can see your sacrifice.
Years of work, worry, and tears,
All just to offer us a paradise,
A home to live in, all these years.

Sometimes it might seem, I take it for granted,
But I know I learned so much from you.
You made sure we’d never leave a celebration empty handed
And would always say please and thank you.

Careless words have hurt you time and time again.
None of them were meant to cut so deep.
Yet your love remains strong as cement.
I know, an open door, you will always keep.
