Matthew, January 2002- Where has the time gone? |
My mercurial boy is growing quickly.
Mood swings threaten, take us under.
You yearn for freedom, I ache.
My heart wants nothing more than
to hold you in my arms,
as you sleep, make everything better.
Your bed barely holds you now,
as you change before my eyes.
Your existence still holds me enchanted,
and my heart holds every smile,
like a priceless treasure carefully guarded.
Oh I know what you means. These moments, so so precious, yet so so fleeting.
ReplyDeleteWhy oh why must they grow and change so fast?
ReplyDeleteWe can't hold them back, or hold on too tight...but we can hold on to anything we want in our hearts!!! I love that!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet, and so true.
ReplyDeleteI love the line "You yearn for freedom, I ache."
