They make up more than DNA
They bond with good and bad they play
The parts that make the special you
Through life they'll leave impressions too
A piece of mind to state you were
More than here of moments stirred
A heartfelt tug, a breath of air
A place all yours, your voice one heard
Presence deemed much necessary
The days and nights though contrary
Time to share before time came
To change your state but not the same
Your mark you'll leave upon many
Remarks like chalk drawn on plenty
With hope erase no one would dare
For such pieces unlike you shared
The inner you, the tried and true
The secret parts you bared and drew
Through thick and thin if someone knew
They'd say this day upon them grew
Like peas in pods joined to be friends
Secured your place in their heart tend
A piece of love unlike no other
This part maybe you drew from mother
The lonesome and the debonair
Sincere thought of distinct you paired
Yours truly blazing your trail
Of fire born for them to sail
You'll leave more than your mark upon
Those loved and those before you're gone
For many pieces stayed leaving your mark
Through walk of life, upon hearts parked
