You brighten up my world. Out of the dark you shine like a beacon Unfolded you have shown your true colours Bringing hope into those who meet you Resisting defeat you stand tall In the hearts of those around you, you reside Grinding our problems into dust Heroine to those you have saved Towering in strength of heart and sprit Energy flows in the form of Love Never-ending, your love goes on. Unbelievably, you have survived the storms Possessing the patience to carry on Mother, sister and friend to those who you have taken under your wing You shall remain with those who you have touched. Words alone cannot describe what you have done Others cannot apprehend what troubles you have faced. Radiating your love from the depth of your heart Living for us through thick and thin Describing you, these words above, take them all as words of Love. You don’t just brighten up my world, but all of ours.
