Child


How does it feel to lose a child?
To lose the bunny toothed smile through the mirror every morning?
Lose the dance to the first tinkle of the rain,
Lose the warm hugs and the sweet breath under your ear,
Lose the flowers, the butterflies, the stars and the sunshine,
Lose the innocent eyes and the naughty smile,
Lose the curiosities and the discoveries,
The tears and the tantrums,
Lose the hands that always led you to childhood,
She is gone,
I lost her today,
Lost the child,
The child in me.


From Archives.But I know now that the child in me can never die...she just plays hide and seek ;)
