Living Arrows 1/52 - contains poetry

Because childhood's not forever...

The Soul I Grew - The Boy I Knew

My soul told heaven: I am Mother

Heaven answered: got you, no other.

You came through me, we were one,

But now you're a boy, you are my son.

Although to you I do care,

To the world I must share.

Because you are on loan to me

It doesn't mean you'll forever be.

You are a living arrow flying

Through the universe, trying.

Trying to grow, trying to live

Successfully learning all that I give.

You are a living arrow soaring

To me you'll never ever be boring.

You always show me something new

Something that I never knew.

You always spot the things I don't

I'm too busy, not that I won't.

I give to you, the love I feel,

It's so powerful, so real.

I know you are not mine

You are however simply divine.

But we chose each other, 

this time!
