Jo Hayton Poet Rhyme

Too Scared To Walk

I didn't want to leave your side
But tomorrow
Was too close to view

Still in euphoria 
Until I will wake up 
Without you

So I let you sleep
Tucked you in
All safe and sleepy eyed

I am so glad dreams found you
Rather than the mess of me
And the tears I cried

Wanted to pluck up the courage
To wake you 
Say we needed to talk

But as always the baby
I resume my crawling
Too scared to walk

Carolyn Devonshire March 9, 2009 at 4:07 PM Wow, Jo, that last line really brings this one home! It's so sad we feel compelled to hide our feelings from loved ones, isn't it? Great work! Carolyn
