Children

Children are special, though they'll never really know,
I've spent my life just watching them grow,
Where has it gone ,the years that have passed,
Why is it now i only ask?
It flies right by by the time they say,The day will come when you're needed less,
As I sit here , I'm just a mess,
I ask them now what can I do?
They reply only worry about you,
I don't feel as if there's anything I'm needed for,
As they straighten up and head out that door,
I'm getting older now I know,
Pretty soon they won't need me at all , I'll go ,
The love I've been given each and everyday,
I promise you it wont go away,
I hope you've felt as if I cared,
I can only say if I dared,
They are my world, though they may never know,
How much they've brought to me they show,
No tears are needed to ever shed,
I loved then I've always said.
