I Loved You Enough

 

I loved you enough...
to stand over you for two hour's while you cleaned your room,
a job that would have taken 15 minute's.


I loved you enough...
to let you see anger,
disappointment and tears in my eye's.
Children must learn that there parent's aren't perfect.


I loved you enough...
to let you assume the responsibility of your actions
even when the penalties were so harsh
they almost broke my heart.


But most of all I loved you enough...
to say NO when I knew you would hate me for it
Those were the most difficult battles of all.
I'm glad I won them, because in the end you won too.


I loved you enough..
To let you hate me at times.
