I have let you down more than once,
You have always managed to stay strong.
For every time I mess up you find the strength to pick up the bits of my soul.
You have always remained by my side,
Others have left me laying in the floor
But you have healed all the wounds
I will always thank you for not denying me when others did
And I will always proudly say that I carry on your genes,
Even if that has its pros and cons
For you are just like me,
A human learning from its daily experiences
