The Foster Family

I love you and I trust you and just really want to say,

I know you wern't meant to stay by through the long, tiring days.

I love you guys and leaned on you in my times of need,

You protected me and cared for me and made me very aware of my need.

I see my need for family, the loving imperfected whole.

The ones who keep you close, even when you're mad and choose to take a stroll.

I feel attached but confused by the transition that will soon begin, I feel hurt by the come and go but I have to remind myself again.

"Family can be a privledge, that you earn with the correct face, the ones that could turn on you", but yet youre hopeful anyways.

But then again I see ya... With the joy and peace you bring, and I begin to question everything I knew of what a family was and everything.

I see the preseverance, the love that loves through all. The prayer that floods these roofs and you claim itts not you at all..

You have something that I want, something that's not a thing, in fact you say its something you absolutly need.

Genuiness and love, the qualities of your spirit, the intentions of your heart, its much beyond my limit.

I could write a thousand pages about the admiration I have for yall, but even with a thousand and one, I still couldn't capture it all.

But anyways I love you, and just really wanted to say. Thank you for who you are, and loving me this special way.
