Hey people! Here's another Kai poem, but please keep in mind that Kai is like six or seven here, 'kay? PLEASE R&R!
Also, I would like to send a thousand thank-you's to Dead-bY-n0w, my completely deranged (aren't we all) and wonderful beta reader who encouraged me to put this up and who helped me to make it read-able (is that even a word?). So thanks Dbn and yeah, I'll let you know how the annoying elevator things work out ;P!
It's night and I'm scared, I'm all alone
In a strange house, cold to the bone
A house of sorrow and of sadness, with strangers around
Talking about my life, as if it's something they found
Out on the streets, left for the taking
And in a way that's true; my spirit is breaking
I used to be alive and now I'm lonely
Slowly slipping out the door, thinking, 'If only
I had known more, and he wouldn't have been there.
Life would have been different, things would have been fair.'
All by myself, on the streets covered in snow
Holding back the tears I desperately want to show
Then suddenly there is a screeching, a car comes to a halt
The door opens, you step out; confident and tall
You stand there for a second, then slowly turn around
But I'm already running, not believing who I found
I slam into you, and crush you in a hug
At first you're unresponsive; like your mind is stuck
But I tighten my hold, and let the tears flow
I'm determined to stay where I am, to never let you go
Then you return the hug, with as much fierceness as me
And for the first time, I feel happy, safe and free
It's an indescribable feeling, as I'm being held in your arms
I bury my face in your chest, suddenly feeling warm
Everything's okay again, as your voice fills my ear
saying, "It's alright son, no need to cry. Daddy will always be here."
I can't help but smile as I take in your scent,
Your heartbeat, breathing, voice and touch; it all becomes a blend
And it's all you, you're with me, you're all I need right now
I feel so loved and secure again, yet my mind is silent somehow
And then, as always, I open my eyes and all that's left in me
Is loneliness and an excruciating longing; you're nowhere to be seen
It came again, like it does every night; only in the end does it scare
Me when I wake, and you're gone, I've had another nightmare
