Vesna Kovrlija Poet Free verse

My Daughter

All the tender words
All around the world
I have gathered for you

All the gentle words
All over the planet
I have chosen for you

I have to be brave
And let you go one day
I know I will be lonely

I must be brave
And let you fly away
Although you are my and only
