I always wanted to hold you
Carry you in my arms.
I always needed you
To get through the storms.

I never imagined
That this day would occur.
To see you open your eyes
And cry with fear.

You may feel alone
And scared at times.
But mama's here
To avoid your hurt.

I am in dread of the day
That you finally grow.
Grow into a beautiful woman
And leave me with memories.

My daughter, I love you
And want to hold you.

Can I carry you in my arms
One last time?

Because I always needed you
And now I see,
You always needed me.
