This child of mine
makes me smile
in the sun soaked night
in the ebony coated day
in the all alone
in the quiet (shh go to sleep)
in between frowns
in between our screams
and inside baby
all the way inside my freeing soul
all the way inside my winking heart
and you make me cry
inside my joy
because I love you.
I love you child that makes me smile
child that brings me smiles on a sun soaked day; in an ebony coated night
For my god-sister and oldest friend, and our baby
