Baby I shall not always be

a poem by Mona Mathur

Mommy, when I cry in the night and yell all the time
I want you to hold me, hug me and kiss me all night
As time is passing by, baby I shall not always be

When you put me to bed, in this lonely dark room
Surrounded by scary walls and dim lights
I want you to hold me tight
Keep me close to you all night and wrap your arms around me all night                   
As time is passing by, baby I shall not always be

Play with me and keep me close to you all day and night
Love me, pamper me and hug me
Always be there for me 
As time is passing by, baby I shall not always be
