Reflection of Love: From Your Son

I carry your love in my bones—

The steady rhythm in my days,

the quiet courage behind my voice.

You stood behind me when I couldn't stand alone,

believing in me louder than my doubts.

In your laughter, I found home.

In your sacrifices, I learned compassion.

Through your sleepless nights and gentle scolding,

I learned that love protects, guides, and endures.

I may stumble and grow in ways you never imagined,

but my love for you remains constant—

a son's silent promise to honor your strength,

to be a reflection of your heart in this world.
