You scream, I yell
I yell, you cry
You cry, I dry your tears
I can see fear in those innocent eyes
I can see feelings no kid ever should know about
But I see so much more
I see love, joy and happiness
I see myself in you
I want to protect you
Just want to hold you tight so no one can harm you
I see the future in you
And when I tuck you in at night
You’re holding me tight
Squeezing your small arms around my neck
Telling me how much you love me
Mummy please don’t leave, I need you
And there it is
The reason why I’m still here
The reason I get up from bed every morning
I want to be here for you
Follow each step you take
In a couple of months a new chapter starts
For all of us
You’re a big boy now
No more kindergarden
No more nappies to change
No more playing around all day
You’re starting school
And with school comes new challenges
You’ll have to learn to read, write and do maths
You’ll have to be more independent
Getting to know new people
Please baby boy, I pray for you
I hope you get along with your classmates
I hope your teacher sees you
I hope you will be safe at school
That no one picks on you
Or make jokes about your size or the way you speak
I do hope you don’t have to go through the same hell I did when I was your age
But most of all
If anything happens
Know I’ll be here for you
Every day and night
Through good and bad days
Because I am your mother
And i love you
To the moon and back
