I hold your soft body,
To my bosom full of love,
Savoring the milky aroma of your skin,
With an heart brimming with pride,
And eyes awash with joyous tears.
You open your eyes to stare into mine,
And slap me right across my face.
It had to be rewarded in your case,
A bout of passionate kissing,
As to make you wrinkle your face.
Guilty, feeling I was,
When you started crying.
I booed and cooed and cajoled,
Oh no, to no avail.
When you decided you had enough,
And of course, I had enough,
You took a moment
To smile at me,
Even blessed me with a fleeting kiss.
I forgot all my pain,
Of the past months,
Of sleepless nights,
Of the pitiful cries,
Of your morbid attention-grabbing.
