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
