When I Look at You

When I look at you

Your movements are

Driftin’ through

Sieving through

The green leaves

That surround your

Little fairy head

When I look at you

I see beauty

I see grace

I see me

I see you

Then I see

Him

The person

You won’t meet

For a very long time

It makes me sad

And almost bittersweet

To look at you

I don’t want to ignore

You, my daughter

I need you just as much

As I needed him

He’s gone now

And you’re my

Little piece

Of his paradise

I love you so much

I just want you to

Know that

No matter what happens

I love you.
