Family is Forever

Dakota

This is for the games that were played.
I know it wasn't the same since I left
I wish I had stayed.
This is for when you used to babysit and we played on the trampoline memories I wouldn't trade.
This is for all the missed break ups and first kisses.
If only i could of been there it is one of my biggest regrets
one of my biggest wishes.
though I Ieft you all stayed in my heart.
times changes all things but,
please don't grow apart.


as I get older my memories fade but you can't be replaced.
Everyone grew so fast it's not a race.
I'm trying to keep up but ,
everyone on their own pace.
The ones who used to watch us turn to mothers and fathers.
Starting the next generation of our blood with their sons and daughters.
Or starting their own lives pursuing their goals.
Nothing wrong with it our absences just take a toll.
though you all have grown,  your in my heart locked in.
I know you are busy now but know you are never forgotten.
I don't know if that means anything anymore.
But I still feel pain and regret as I walk out the door.
I see everybody how I left when I was 7 . Every time i come back I feel we lose a little bit of our connection.

For the ones in my generation
I wished I had more time with you
you all are doing so good, y'all my inspiration.
don't forget who or where it came from
I know it sounds sappy
But in truth we need each other
Every time i think of you ,you make me happy.
thank you to those who raised us
I put no one above.
family is forever
so I know I love you.
