You Made Me

Pretty

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

You made me pretty

When you looked at me so many summers ago.

You made me pretty

When you saw something in me

That I never believed was there

You made me pretty.

You made me beautiful

When you looked at me walking toward you

You made me beautiful

In my pristine white wedding gown

You saw something in me

That made your heart want me forever

You made me beautiful

You made me loved

When I first saw you look at our little son

You made me loved

When I saw something in you

No one ever shared with me before

You made me loved

You made me forever

That night I held you so close

You made me forever

When I saw cancer shutting down your human life.

You made me forever

You will always be with me

You made me pretty

When you looked at me so many summers ago.
