An open letter to parents.

Reminds me a little of my own situation. Growing away from my single mother and doing my own thing. She fears and has many hopes for me and I am striving to be who I am, and succeeding in my life, although my goals may differ from what she believe they should be.

"I've grown a handsome tall tree, mother And I want to bear a fruit for you" - looking to strive in your life and give your mom a gift in return for her being there your entire life "And I've carried your fears and your hopes, father I'll conquer them for me and you" - dad has fears and hopes for you but it's okay. I will conquer them and you'll see, father, no need to worry about me.
