Lean to Love

As a young child, I was made of stone
I had no feelings, destined to be alone
As I was told, your mother is dead
not a single tear from my eye was shed

As a grew older I met a boy
He was the start of my love story
Eleven years old when we met
Into my heart he was let

Older we grew and college we started
I told him to move on, he was broken hearted
A few years later, back to him I came
He had moved on he didn't feel the same

Many nights I laid, crying in pain
He was now gone and I was to blame
My stone walls back up and coated with lead
I'll never love again, Is what I said

Twenty years old and a blue plus sign
What would I do with this baby girl of mine
They said you'll never love her, not like you should
I believed them and wasn't sure I could

The day finally came that I saw her sweet face
In that moment I knew, motherhood was my place
Only she and I for 5 long years
Could anyone love us, was my fear

Then out of nowhere came my perfect man
Was this long wait all part of the plan?
Six foot five and eyes so blue
A smile so sweet and words so true

Please make him mine, to God I would pray
Will he love us too, will he want to stay?
A few months later, came a box with a ring
My stomach full of flutters, my heart began to sing

Not long after, came our sweet Paxton Wayne
Now with two children, I'll never be the same
Their smiles so innocent, giggles so sweet
I love every inch of them, down to their feet

If I could I would, make time stand still
My heart so full, my life fulfilled
How could I doubt, my God up above
I just had to wait, to learn how to love

My family is perfect, beginning to end
A true blessing sent, directly form him!!
