For the One with White Lines

For the one

with sparkling green eyes,

frizzy brown hair,

and arms with white lines

Each day I watch

and I am simply stunned,

I am full of pride

for what you've become

For the one

with a once toxic brain,

skin like snow,

and a heart full of flames,

Each day I watch

and I am simply stunned

I am full of pride

for what you've overcome

For the one

with a determined soul,

carefully picked words,

who understands the world

Each day I watch

and I am simply stunned

I am full of pride

for the battles you've won
