My Darling Child

My darling child, where did you go?

You left me so soon.

Your gentle heartbeat in rhythm with mine.

Connected to my soul.

I have a place for you right here, my love.

There’s a hollow in my heart waiting just for you.

You went tumbling through the rabbit hole,

Right through my fingers, and I could not grasp you.

Where did you escape to?

It’s a mystery to me.

I wasn’t full until you were with me.

Now I’m empty because you’re gone.

And I miss you and I need you

And now I can only wait for you.
