Susette Malak - Do Not Doubt Me

I loved you the moment I knew you existed
In time, in space, in my heart.
I wanted you forever
In time, in space, in my heart.

I wanted to close my eyes, not watch you grow, moving away from me
Physically, emotionally, mentally.
I want to rejoice in your adulthood and independence
Physically, emotionally, mentally.

I could not hold you forever
Close enough, tight enough, long enough.
I can not hold you now
Close enough, tight enough, long enough

Susette Malak
