My Child
Our love can never be broken....

Watching you doze, a tiny blossom,
head nodding, fighting sleep's gentle pull.
Your breath, a murmur, secrets untold,
a smile on closed lips, a contented lull.
Tiny hands, new to this world,
fists clutching, then releasing their hold.
Years later, a mirrored scene,
your mother's tears, a story untold.
A silent plea in the dimming light,
yet our souls intertwined, a tethered kite.
Distance may separate, but love remains,
a constant echo, calming life's rains.
Each night, a whisper, a promise I keep,
my love a lullaby, carried on your sleep.
