You kissed my lips and held me close
all I could smell was your sweet aroma
you brushed against my cheek as you whispered softly
those three words I always loved to hear
I longed the hours to pass, till you held me in your arms
My tummy fluttered, I wasn't the only one who wanted you home
My hand rubbed gently as I softly whispered,
"Daddy will be home shortly"
A rap at the door stirred me from my sleep
I was greeted by two men in blue
Sickness overcome me as I lost my balance
I needed you now more than ever
I held your hand begging you to open your eyes
Say those words, I needed to hear, your voice I longed for
Please don't leave me, don't leave us, my tummy fluttered
We need you
I need you so much.
