The Truth Is...

She recently turned 3, my little girl is growing up!
She wants to explore the world, she's coming into her own

And the truth is, I wish she'd stay my baby girl forever
Truth is, I don't want to have to share her
Truth is, I don't want to be away from her...EVER

And in those truths, I'm selfish!

I think about her even when I'm with her, how did this person consume my very being?
When we're apart, my world is not at ease, truth is, I have to let her grow and be

I think about how I have to spend the rest of my life making up for the fact that I'm raising her on my own
Truth is, it's exhausting and tiring and rewarding all at the same damn time!!!!
Truth is, I'd do it all over again just to see her smile when she's being naughty
The truth is...I'd do it all over again just to watch her sleep and hold her close and breath her in

Truth is, I try to be the best mom I can be, and nothing will ever stop me from waking up every living day trying to do right by her

Truth is, she's the best thing that ever happened to me
Not one second, not a day goes by when she's not in my thoughts and forever in my heart

Truth is, I love her more than life itself!
