When I first laid eyes on you
My heart skipped a beat
I waited so long, so patiently
To hold you close
I told you my secrets
My trials and tribulations
Hoping you would understand
And you did
Such an old soul
Wise beyond your years
It was like you knew me
From another life
And god has sent you
to ease my pain
Silence was enough
For us to communicate
And empathise.
It was hard in the beginning
But we built our rhythms
You got me, I got you
The way you wrap your fingers around mine
Strength through the storm
Mama, you'd whisper
In the dead of the night
My blood, my cells, my spirit
Did I make you or did you make me?
My little man. My main man.
