Please don’t let go, mommy!

I can still hear him cry

Seems like only yesterday

But how the years go by

Once counted on for everything

He’s got his own life now

But should he ever need me

I’ll get to him, somehow

For no matter the distance

Nothing can keep us apart

For that little boy, all those years ago

Is the one who stole my heart

Lips that pouted, soft and plump
How he longed to hungrily kiss her

Watching quietly, as she lie asleep
He knew in his heart, he would miss her

No chance for him to stay the night
He needed to leave while he could

She always knew he would return
Some things are just understood

One last glance, as he left the room
How he wanted so much to wake her

His heart always caused him such grief
Next time, he promised, he’d take her

Captivating ~ #poetry

Look inside this tiger’s mind

As if you weren’t a human being

Captivating, his eyes watch all

Think about what he’s seeing

Gazing over the jungle lands

Is it his next meal he’s seeking?

Or is he content to loll around

Undisturbed, but ever peeking

A predator by nature, he waits

Until the time is right to strike

Til then he’s happy just to gaze

In a state that’s quite dreamlike
