Mommy, don't leave me!

Mommy, please don't go away,
I want you here, with me to stay.

My little hand, it needs your touch,
I love you, Mommy, oh so much.

The world feels big, and I feel small,
Without you, Mommy, I might fall.

Your arms are safe, your eyes are kind,
Please, Mommy, leave me behind.

I'll be good, I promise, true,
Just please don't leave-I need you too.
