Don’t let me cry, mama.
Don’t listen to those comments mama.
You’re not spoiling me.
Your millions of kisses don’t hurt me, mama.
You picking me up and holding me close to your chest doesn’t hurt me.
Don’t let me cry, mama.
I trust you, I know your voice,
I know your smell,
I find so much comfort in your touch since I came out of your belly mama.
It was so warm and safe there.
Things are so overwhelming out here mama.
I don’t understand this new world yet,
it’s big, it’s new, it’s scary mama. I need you.
You’re my safe space.
I won’t always need you to pick me up mama,
one day I’ll be big and I won’t be so scared.
One day I won’t be so little,
and I won’t need you to rock me to sleep,
kiss my forehead, and hold me.
It won’t be like this for long.
But right now mama, I need you.
