I Want

I want to be with you my son
To hold you close and be your mum
I want to keep you in my arms
To keep you safe away from harm

I want to kiss your little head
and lay you gently in your bed
I want to banish away your fears
and wipe away your salty tears

I want to teach you how to talk
to watch you crawl, and see you walk
I want for you to be with me
to bounce you gently on my knee

I want so much to see you smile
if only for a little while
I want so much for the pain to end
to see my baby once again.

love you forever little man xxx
