Timothy
Where are you
You do not come to me
When I call your name
How long shall I wait
I walk alone in the shadows
Where only the moon shines bright
Will you be my guide
I stood there
In this place
Once
And knelt
And wept
Sweet child
Beautiful
I wish to drink you in
I wish to feel your cheek
Upon my lips
My arms are vacant
Where you once lay
Empty lullabies
I hear them still
Sweet memory
Comes to me at last
You are near
We dance and sing
Precious child
You are mine forever
My heart is full of pain
It weeps child
Where are you
