Through My Baby Cries

When waters my eyes overflow And I’m left feeling like a stomach with a heavy blow When life’s hard knocks have left me in the deep blue And the world brings me to my knees and leaves no clue When my words lose meaning and are drowning in the crowds You value my opinion and hear my inner thoughts My journey has taken me like a river afar Washed me like the oceans anew to a foreign shore Like the nose knows the smell of the sea I’m drawn home to your warm culinary Only you remember me as a newborn Love me still, even growing up as an insolent son You have instilled in me atleast some of your grace Patient through the years and the baby cries Someday when my soul dies and I’m as old as my age And mother’s day comes to find you still on this stage I know I’ll feel alive through the love you fulfil To this home you drew so beautiful I know I’m welcome and can always claw back Because you have my back and you’ll always be my rock
