Looking up for you,
Thinking of the pain you went through.
I pretended to be strong
When you said you couldn’t go on.

You thought I would make it,
Even when everything seemed shaky.
I remember the time when
You fought for your last breath.

You held me and told me that was it.
I remember how I’d felt,
Kept my tears away.
I knew I had to do it for your sake.

It’s been long enough
And though the wounds haven’t healed
But you, once my weakness
Have become my strength.
