Don't Cry

Catherine Houston





I sit here silently

I day dream

All I want to do is

Tell him don't cry

SON

My heart is on the floor

I wish I would have made

A wiser choice

I can not take back yesterday

So I pray

I say LORD

Hold him in your arms today

Comfort him

I say LORD

I am truly sorry for my mistakes

I ask for forgiveness

I hear a whisper in my ear

My fathers voice of  course

He said hold on

This to shall pass

I say son

Please hold on

I love you more than the world

Mommy will be home soon

I can see his smile

And 

The tears dry up 

He says mom 

Can we have a fish?

I laugh

I am a animal lover

So I say

Of course we can have a fish

Maybe two

But today

Lets worry about

These two fish

He laughs aloud

And 

Our Hearts are filled

With JOY

Again
