You are mine

You snuck in
Peering round my corners
As I careened
Through life
Then you grabbed my heart

At first you held
On to me
Tightly
So tightly
We shared cooing
And you were dependent
On my many
Moods

But as things go
We both had a lot of
Growing to do
Even when
There were days we
Collided together
In laughter
There were other days
We bruised
Egos

Still, you were mine

I tried desperately
To recall how it was for
Me before you
The struggles would not
Always come back
Because I was placed in
This “place”
And had to take on the
Roles created by
Loving you

For you were mine

Soon,
Too soon

You loosened your grip
And explained you
No longer needed
Me

While it was expected
It still hurt

For you were still mine

In the letting go
There was a sense of
Freedom for both
But at what cost

I wonder if I am
Still as much yours

As you are still mine

Only time, and your
Own child,
Will tell

I’m here.
