Poetry
Just yesterday in the palm of my hand
I held onto yours
I must have turned
Because today you’re a man
Growing up so fast
And today won’t last
So I can’t hold on
Just yesterday I wiped tears
From your eyes
Now it’s you who says
Please don’t cry
Growing up so fast
And today won’t last
No I can’t hold on
Just yesterday the bus carried you away
Little hand waving in the window
Today I watch the car pull away…
There’s the honk;
There’s the wave.
When did I blink?
Where did the time go?
Did I oversleep?
I just don’t know.
You grew up too fast.
And I’m scared.
Cause today won’t last.
And I have to let go
Did I say it enough?
Did I show it enough?
Did I hug you enough?
Do you know you’re loved?
You grew up too fast.
And today’s going fast.
And it just doesn’t last.
