I was just a kid <br />In love with you <br /> <br />I couldn't sleep <br />For thinking of you <br /> <br />You never hurt me <br />You never sent me away <br />You always loved me <br />In your own special way <br /> <br />I was a child in madness <br />Violence and sadness <br />But you showed me the way <br />To love one day <br /> <br />I thought I loved you <br />I thought you loved me <br />I guess it was <br />Just the tears of a child <br />Wanting to be loved <br /> <br />When I laid in bed at night <br />And heard the pain <br />Of my mothers plight <br />I'd close my eyes <br />And think of you <br /> <br />You never hurt me <br />You never sent me away <br />You always loved me <br />In your own special way <br /> <br />Dreams of a child <br />Turn into nightmares of a man <br />Making me want to end <br />This life of hell <br /> <br />But then I think of you <br />And the dreams I had of you <br />And decide to stay another day <br /> <br />Childhood memories lost <br />Except for the ones <br />Of knowing you <br /> <br />You never hurt me <br />You never sent me away <br />You always loved me <br />In your own special way <br /> <br />When I lie down and die <br />I will always know <br /> <br />I at least loved once<br /><br />Dave Alan Walker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dreams-of-a-child-2/
