The reason I stay

I remember your laughter

the pitter patter of your tiny feet

the small fingers that curled around mine

curious eyes searching and smiling at me

the soft curls that refused to lay flat

and tears that would want only me for comfort

I stay for those moments when you still need me

the nights when the storms are too scary to ride out alone

Even when I feel down and low

I stay because you are the only love I have ever known.

With Love,

GV Rioz
