cookie jar

dusk arising

 




here i am in your arms
sometimes i wonder why
could hold on to you for ever
but sometimes you see me cry
its not that i would ever leave you
you know you'll never have to ask me why
there's a distant place i try to hide away
but its there when i look in your eyes

             you know that i will never ever walk away
            from what remains of my yesterday
             some things remain a major part in my life
             hard for me to find the words to say
             tears are the price we pay
             for the love i see in my little boys eyes

sometimes i look at you
can't believe this thing we are
you're everything i want to do
my heart is here in your arms
i know you always give me time to be
and you know i'll never wander far
everytime i walk back thru the door
you feed me candy, like you're my cookie jar
          
             you know that i will never walk away
             from what was yesterday
             some things remain a major part of my life
             hard for me to find the words to say
             tears are the price we pay
             for the love i see in my little boys eyes

  • Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this a few months back, forgot about it and found it this morning. It's unfinished and could do with a re-write but re-writing can destroy the emotion in a piece.... so i publish it today... raw as it is.

    Yes I can feel the emotion that was with you when you write this.

    My son sometimes asks if I wish he did not have autism. It is such a part if who he is and what makes him unique. I tell him I would never want to change him I just wish he did not find the world so hard. I believe that he needs me to never give up hope. To be there in the way he needs.

    Thank you for sharing this as it is
    Taking me to a shadowing comfort
    Where my heart felt this pain
    So many words felt the same

    Much peace and respect
