For Ever a Child

You came in to this world... Bloody and wet A screwed up face Our eyes met Your birth... What I was waiting for... On this earth Your first smile Your first tooth I held you for a while The faltering steps you took The outside world Your garden A second look The child inside you Changing too Becoming an adult too You came into this world I smiled For a while I was with you Then it was gone You left... Making your way too You came in to this world You never left Where ever you are You are never far You are forever a child... In my heart
