My child





My child cry not

        The pain will go

And you will smile



Daddy, I remember

The streets we never traversed

But I remember him there.



Yes my child

But he is not

Nor does he want.



No, please daddy no

The voice so sincere

I hear his pain.



My child, it is not

He has not pain

He has no sincerity



Dad, oh dad

        Why are they cruel

        Why do they hurt.



Come close my child

Wipe the tears

Bring back the rainbow.



Daddy I hear him

I understand him

I know him.



Child, hush, my child

Sleep in my arms

Sssssshhhhhh I am here



Daddy, he told me too

I will hold you

I will protect you



I know my child

Maybe it was so

Maybe he can not



Ah daddy,

You too will go

One day you will go



Hush my baby

Even so my love will stay

From beyond I will be here



Daddy, oh daddy

I can keep him thus

From beyond he will be here

.... The classical dilemma between the head and the heart !!
You are as fascinating as usual.
"Wipe the tears .... bring back the rainbow"; I adore these words !!.
