SHE LOOKED INTO HER CHILD'S EYES

She looked into her child's eyes
And saw their road of life.
But mostly her own.
She saw the good and the bad.
She looked into her child's eyes
And realized that child was
Trying to be just like her.
She looked into her child's eyes
And realized where ever she went
What else she did, what ever she said
That child was taking it all in.
She looked into her child's eyes
And realized she made some mistakes
Both good and bad.
She looked into her child's eyes
And realized she too was down
A road like this with her parents,
Relatives, and their friends.
