The chain that connects me to you
Is strong
And unable to break.
No matter how hard I try
I will always be tethered to you.
No matter how I try to disguise you
Or deny that you’re there
I will always be tethered to you.
I must pull you with me
For you will not walk.
And you pain me so.
But I will always be tethered to you.
You grow stronger than me at times
But I still must pull your weight.
And I know that I can’t ever stop
Because I’ll always be tethered to you.
And though you may try
To make me give up.
I will never.
I know that I must be strong
Even when I’m not.
So together we will walk
On my path of life.
Because I’ll always be tethered to you.
