Growing Pains


Today I thought of my babies and cried
because I miss<b> singing </font></b>them lullabyes

It happened so fast the years just flew by
I knew it would happen but still wonder why

they can't stay puppies and kittens too long
and I'm forced to start letting go
forced to be strong

But I'm not in fact I'm quite a wreck
living without little hands around my neck

Had I known it be gone
I'd have held on much longer...

They adored me, they believed me
They promised that would never leave me

they never fought back, argued or disagreed,
they loved me unconditionally

they filled a great need
But now they don't need me

They don't treat me like they once did
they're almost young adults they're not little

they have their own thoughts and opinions and lives
And one day they will have their own and wives

but they'll be around here for a couple more years
so how do I get through that without all these tears

how do I survive without being needed
it wasn't enough time I feel I was cheated

I'll never forget their sweet little faces
their total acceptance they had so much grace

I'll never forget their sweet little hugs and how they saw me as nothing but love...
