How proud
I am
Of you for
Taking this
Journey…
How far you
Have all come!
From such
Small but meaningful
Beginnings.
I know you wanted
To change the world
And make
Everyone try
To live in a
World that was
Better…
We know that
There is no
Such thing…
The world is
As it is…
And everyday
It is made
And re-made
And I think
You've done
A marvelous job
No matter
What anyone says.
I know
Better than
Anyone else
That you've
Done your best
As each moment
Allowed..
And sometimes
Those moments
Were very low
And very trying
And sad
And well
You survived…
And those that
Didn't
Are with me.
You are loved.
You are my Beloveds.
You are as I made you,
Perfectly You.
There is no one
Else for the job.
Keep going
Because everyone
On this side
Of the veil
Is cheering
Rooting
Betting
On you
To win
In the end.
