Dear Teddy

My sweetest girl, what is this?
binn
tears

Mama, mama
how could you?
where is my watch-teddy?

Never never have monsters attacked me
never ever have I been alone,
while you were working from morning to night
what will happen tonight?
when teddy isn't by my side,
where is my teddybear?

Oh, mama please, give it back
the shadows are growing in my room
the moon goes up, but it is not as happy
as it should be
Oh mummy, something is wrong
dragons are growing under my bed

Oh mummy, give it back to me
I'll be so nice, so nice

chasingtheday The PoetBay support member heart!
lots of loneliness coming through here - times where the parents vanish and leave the child to their own devices. a good poem.
