You have shown boldness and bravery
Manifested radical hope during adversity.
How I wish I could see and hug you now tightly,
And thank you for reminding me that even in misery, one can always choose to be happy.
You continue to sail through
And I keep wond'ring if I can, too.
You have intelligently patched your pains together into a radiant cape,
That is why, I also want to sail through life as you do, and not escape.
You are lionhearted, a braveheart.
Moreover, raising us, for you, was both a privilege and art.
Mom, Dad, hold me dearly; teach me
To live life with a heart that is strong and a spirit completely free.
