Somewhere within my heart, is still your song. Can't remember how it starts, it's been so very long. Something about moonbeams, lullabies, and sweet dreams...Then the memories come rushing in and I loose the melody in the din...
See those marks upon the wall? How fast you got to be so tall. Hold my hand to cross the street. Koolaid kisses were so sweet... Then you were off to school, childhood a kalidoscope pool. From trike to bike to car, I knew the time for you to leave wasn't very far...
But you always paused at the door, "I love you, Mom", wait to hear 'I love you more". Always thought I'd have you for awhile. Always thought I'd see that unique smile...but it wasn't meant to be.
See those marks upon the wall? How fast you got to be so tall. Hold my hand to cross the street. Koolaid kisses were so sweet-
Pause at my heart's door. Whisper 'I love you, Mom,' wait to hear 'I love you more'. Then maybe the melody can go on.
