My Hazy Gaze
by Kim Schuelke
Nestled in your arms,
My hazy gaze is fixed on you.
You smile at me, I see a tear
And all my gaze is fixed on you.
Nestled in your arms,
I long and crave for you.
To hold me close, and keep me safe
While still my gaze is fixed on you.
Nestled in your arms,
I won’t always long for you.
I’ll change and grow, and make you proud
Though still my gaze will shine on you
No longer nestled in your arms,
Someday I’ll gaze at someone new.
You’ll give me up, and through my tears
My thankful gaze will smile at you
