My Somebody

You are not just anybody 

You aren’t just someone others pass on the street 

You aren’t just a daughter

A sister

A wife

And you aren’t just a mother

You are everything

You are my everything 

You are my world

My universe 

The reason I am who I am today

I became a woman by watching you

I make my choices thinking of you

I look up to you

Admire you

And I’m jealous of you

I am jealous of how wonderful you are

How gracious and godly you are

You look at the best in others, and I envy you

I want to be just like you

I always have been

People always ask what you want to be when you grow up

And I never knew

I still have no idea

All I know is I want to be like you
