It fills the dark places
inside us all
and shines light inside
what soul we do call

Tis a warmth from within
while pain lies without
it saves us from sin
from loathing and doubt

Like the love of small children
little girls and grown boys
so inocently playing
with love like small toys

Yet devoted they are
and none could ever doubt
that the love they hold within
is what they show without

Take the warmth thats around you
surround you like a cacoon
cast of dreads of tomorrow
leave the shadow of doom

And take with you this bit
for you are loved and cared for like not other
as a friend, lover, and confidant
as a child and as a mother.
