Little one

such sweet innocence

again you ask me of your mother

with sad longing eyes

Once again I know not what to say

I just hold you in my arms

and tell you that she loves you

Again you look at her pictures

not understanding

Who the child is

that she holds in her arms

Seeing jealousy in such innocent eyes

Jealousy of your younger self

cracks my heart

Again with kisses

the pictures go back to the self

to await the next time

of sorrowful questions

Little one I dread the day

That I look into your eyes

And see sadness outweigh the longing

innocence lost

Some things should last forever

Few things ever do

Loved you then

Love you still

Through our love our son was born

Did I ever tell you thank you

You should see him now, he's growing so fast

he's so beautiful, so smart

Sometimes when he looks at me

I see you in his eyes

The other day he asked me where you were

I did not know what to say

So I told him you loved him

He looked at your pictures a long time

Then he kissed them and put them away

I cried a litte then

not so much for us as

for you and him

people like soap bubbles

pretty to look at

swirling multicolors catch your eye

look in there eyes

through the windows of the soul

no one looks back

crowds of empty people

wander hollow eyed

what have they done with there souls

are they just hidden

quaking from pain

were they stolen away

by a sneaking soul theif

did they die

bit by bit

some every day

leaving people like soap bubbles

swirling surface colors

with nothing inside
