Lullaby
This little heart is soft, yet strong;
It's beating flows into a song...
A lullaby of wondering eyes
Which for the first time see the skies.
This perfect hand lies in my palm;
My soul is peaceful...and so calm..
This little body that I see
Becomes the biggest part of me.
A part a of long forgotten flame;
A part of love that turned to shame...
But I won't let it bother me,
I'll think of thing that yet to be:
First smile, so innocent and pure,
First steps, so short and insecure.
I see these eyes - they're full of shine!
This is my baby, it is Mine!
My second life has just begun,
I'm not alone, I've got my son.
My happiness is now complete,
Something that no one can defeat.
