Happy Birthday

Words to My Daughter

It’s your birthday today and I’m kicking myself because I missed it /

I get to see you over the phone through video chat but it’s not the same;

It’s different /

I wanna hold you and kiss you baby I miss you

I don’t want to miss another birthday of yours /

I don’t want you to be far away anymore

You’re the only who believes in me /

But that’s all I need to endure this journey

You make me feel worthy /

It’s crazy I graduated from school 10 years ago buts it’s only until now that I’m learning /

If there’s one thing for certain is that you’re my motivation

The fuel that keeps this fire burning /

To never give up and to fight until there’s nothing left

Inside this surrogate body until death /

I refuse to be a hologram in your life when I can be there in person; you deserve me at my best
