A Daughter’s Wish©

If you laugh

I may shed tears of happiness

For there hasn’t been a smile upon your face for a while

If you were to find time for me

I might be surprised

For he keeps you within arms reach

There are no longer moments meant for you and me

If you tired of him

I would rejoice

And just maybe I’d sleep

Because the moments spent worrying for you would slip away

If you stayed strong

I’d know, I no longer have to worry

Things could once again be as they once were

Peaceful with just me and you
