Do you still remember when I use to cradle you?

Do you remember how I would rock you to sleep?

Your deep brown hair, so soft and silky, I ran my fingers through to support you while you slept.

Now you're so grown up, so independent.

I remember the nights, the nights that you were scared, where you came to me to rest in my arms.

I could hear our hearts beat in the silent night.

They beat in unison.

Now you've grown so strong, do you even wish for my protection?

Those simple feelings I had for you long ago grew as you grew.

Now they are so strong, I desire you.

I wonder sometimes do you feel the same.

I dream of how it would feel to hold you close at night once more.

Tell me, do you wish for me to hold you as I did years ago?

Do you wish for me to sing my lullaby that put you so soundly to sleep?

Did you, as I did, hear are hearts beat that night.

Beating for each other.
