A seed you are
that'll be longing
for things of sorts
that only time can prevail.
Innocence brush-
into your skin-
and your inside.
Your delicate
silk soft,
milk bath skin
carries the love
created by two souls.
In your eyes,
attached bliss,
emanates truthfulness-
only a child bears.
Your smile warms,
the heart, the soul,
of everyone.
In a swift-
moving manner,
it breathes happiness.
Your cry,
gives the tension-
that'll awaken
the senses
and proves the nature
that we can love
be love, and know
love unconditionally.
I am waiting
for your tears to flow
In your rosy cheeks.
I realize that It'll take
two weeks for tears
to appear in a child.
