Self Published Poem


Your Little Swing

I felt as if I had the world.
Anything that I could possibly wish for
Anything that I ever wanted
I had it all.

Nothing lasts forever though.
My joy, my happiness, my purpose
They all just simply disappeared when she left
My life became empty

I remember that day
The sun was blazing down on us
Viciously striking your flawless diamond skin
But you stayed
And so did your smile

I remember the next day
Cloudy, and frigid
Tears were tearing your skin
As they grazed that pink cheek of yours
But you stayed as they slowly dried up

And I remember the day after
The weather was perfect
But I was empty
You didn’t come back

I waited
Alone
Deserted
I waited for you to come back

When you finally came back
Something was different
Taller, bigger, and mature
Filled with tiredness

Heard you’ve been busy with school work
She says thank you
For waiting
It’s always good to know that
There is a place where I can just sit down relax and blow away her worries
And I tell her
I will always be here

I will always be your little swing
