I hope you know

I hope you know…
I watch you with pride
No matter the distance
I trust our lives will collide
The roads have been bumpy
And I have been weak
We cried through the struggles
And laughed through the peaks

I hope you remember…
To always stay true
Never lose yourself
And always live for you
The journey’s beginning
Go follow your fate
Use the past a compass
For the future you’ll create

I hope you look back...
And forgive all the hate
Take no lesson for granted
We all know you’ll do great
Keep in your heart all my smiles
Think no more of my tears
I’ll always be around the corner
Still, after all these years
