You held the door open to the world And showed me it was there for the taking All the beauty of the seas and stars, To love, to fear, to hold close to my heart. Then you sent me on my journey, Knowing all along you couldn't follow. You respected my different path Even as it led to higher heights and Sights you've never seen. And now, we are different, but entirely the same. Me, a part of you, in this crazy, fabulous world, Remembering, and strengthened by, The courage and endless faith of your broad love As I start to soar and fly ever outward on my own. #selfie #freeWrite #filipina
