Little Boy of Mine
Oh, little boy of mine Born into my heart It took me some time
Foster, Birth parents I’ve promised myself © Heather L.M. Cieslik
three little years old
Before you came to me
Into trials born
and struggles so far
Than most will never see
to learn of your past
And what they did to you
Cherish, care and love
not soreness and loss
What they’re supposed to do
both have let you down
Shortchanged your tiny life
Nurture and kindness
care, giggles and hugs
Should have been, not such strife
Are you gonna trust
my absolute love
Unending devotion
When all you have known
is loss and neglect
Else is just a notion
by no means give up
Try until it slays me
You will someday know
love yourself and life
