The gift of life

I didn't give you the gift of life.

But in my heart I know.

The love I feel is deep and real.

As if it had been so.

For us to have each other is like a dream come true.

No, I didn't give you the gift of life.

Life gave me the gift of you.

Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone,

but still miraculously my own.

Never forget for a single minute,

you didn't grow under my heart - but in it.
