Words Will Never Be Enough

03:58am

Your tiny body has grown enough for me to tightly hug you
Your little arms can wrap around my neck now
Look how fast you've grown my little angel

I lift your sleeping body and place it firmly on my chest
My tears roll down your back as you sleep
I always said I'd never let you see me crying yet I wish to share so much with you...

My darling daughter, you are all I have
My words will never be enough to try to prove to you how much I love you
I can only pray I'm doing right by you
And I can only pray I'm doing right for you

I lay you down beside me and watch you sleep
I wipe away the tears and place my head on your tiny chest
I can hear your heart beating and all the turmoil is calm

It's far from easy trying to raise you on my own
You wake up and smile at me and I know you are worth all the sleepless nights
The night's spent worrying if I'm doing right by you
The weekends spent working so you have everything you need
The constant fight in trying to give you everything you want and need

Words will never be enough my child
I can only thank God for you and his endless mercies

Thank you for choosing me to your mom!
My words will never be enough

  1. I know what you mean.Words do seem so profoundly inadequate. We will never know if we're doing it right, but we give it our all, with God by our side.

    Nice to stumble upon a fellow Namibian blogger.
