Lullabies and Goodbyes

**Dedicated to the one I love the most**

Give me your hand before we cross the street
wait, let me bend down to fix your laces.
I'll hold your hand while you look up at me
your fourth birthday, and a cake to put your face in.
The monsters under your bed, don't worry
they can't exist when mommy saves the day.
Your homework should be done in a hurry
that way you and I have time to play.
I'll watch your dreams as you sleep on my chest
and make sure with all my heart they come true.
I'll wipe your tears and then try my best 
to reassure that you can reach the moon.
But to know it is nothing more than a dream
as all promises died the day you left me.
