Don’t cry my beloved child
I am here
Right here beside you
I will wipe your tears child
And cover your naked body
I am right here child
To protect you
From the dust and debris of the dead
To give you water
To quench your thirst
In your eyes
I see your innocence
I will forever
Protect that innocence
No one will take it away from you
Don’t cry my beloved child
I have not gone away
I have not left
I am here as I was yesterday
Don’t be sad child
The storm will pass
It always does
My beloved child
I love you
I love you more
Than you can ever imagine
You wave at me
Your hands so small
I hold your small hands
Your hands in mine
Don’t cry my beloved child
I will never forsake you.
