Debbie Duncan Poet Light Verse

Wild Child

There's a wild child inside of me
Living in my heart that's  free 
One I won't every let go of  
One I don't want to let go of.

I wish for you to never leave
I never want to lose  her 
Stay with me forever.

I feed off of you 
So you must stay 
I can not lose you
I fear if I ever do lose you

If you would ever leave me 
I know for sure I will become old
I should never want that to happen.

For I know if I ever lose you
If you should ever want to leave me
Then I would surely die inside 
And become withered and old.

You are the spark that keeps me alive!

Carol Eastman December 5, 2011 at 8:07 AM I wouldn't call it light poetry for it seems deep and touching to me. Beautifully written! Debbie Duncan December 5, 2011 at 3:36 PM thank you Carol , but for me if it does not bring tears to my eyes,, then it's light poetry to me;}
