'Mum' - by David Wilding
Mum
by David Wilding (1st January 2002)
He depends on me
He needs me
More than Dad ... it seems
I'm his life, his food
I change him, play with him
Wipe his nose
'd be hard without me
Someone to 'choomk', to give him love
To hold him, hug him
And tell him he's special, I love him
And need him like he does me
Different way
And what if ...?
Well ...
He could be ill!
Get hurt! Have an accident!
Oh God! NO!
Not my boy
Save him! Help! Protect him!
Don't go out!
Don't leave alone!
He might ...! He could ...!
Don't go near him!
Don't touch!
Keep away!
My baby!
I can't sleep!
He won't
Or can't, don't want to
Go to bed! SLEEP!
Sleep! Oh please sleeep!
This is torture!
I'm all alone
No-one to help
Got to ... what!
Why won't he sleep?
I can't survive this!
- but I do, I will
He needs me
But ... oh for eight hours!
Another nappy
I love it really
To kiss his little bum again
His funny legs
His little feet
I love it!
Come on, let's check
Have you? Did you?
Go on! Let me change you
You could use another one
Couldn't you?
Yes, yes for sure
Well, let's go
My life? Three things
Him, HIM and H I M !
Oh, and more him
What else?
Well, him
That little boy
Total joy, total love, all of me
In him
From me
Endless
'What is Me?' - by David Wilding
- Now, what is it? You want to be And how to know .... If you're what you can be? And who am I? To say to me That I am not All that you say I should be And what IS me? The one you see How do you know .... ....
'If ...' - by David Wilding
- If you can think when others dream Get done what others only plan If you can go where others just discuss Find what they can only seek If thought is what they cannot Or actions louder than ALL their words When push comes to shove Your defences up unlike theirs ....
'She To Me' - by David Wilding
- She is to me Like wool to clouds Like green to grass Like bids to the trees And her face shines Like the brightest star Her hair - it is to me Fine smooth as silk How I WANT to touch To FEEL it run over me And to do those things as before ....
'She and Me' - by David Wilding
- I want to be there To see her again, feel her, taste her But it cannot be Why is it .... When I have I lose And gain what I do not Where I want, it is not Where I am, nowhere Far from here The place I need The one I was and need now ....
'Cracking Up!' - by David Wilding
- What a week I'm having I lose my girl, hate my job and gonna lose my mind! What's it gonna take? Just one more thing and that'll be it Five years ago replayed Except here Here in what was my sanctuary I can't take it no more! Everyone's out to get me ....
