Born into my arms from the hands of an angel,
One whom lives to this day in my heart.
Pieced together with memories of loved ones, so sacred,
Reminiscence has built up my past.
Whilst in your presence, I’m wrapped in a blanket,
Created of joy and hardship.
A single glance is all it takes for me to re-feel that pain,
My childhood,
Ingrained with sadness.
You were gifted a pair,
One here, the other there,
Although the two of you have a place in my heart,
Despite the fact that you’re crumbling apart.
Age doesn’t matter, not when under my care,
From the moment I laid eyes on you,
I had to take you
Everywhere.
Gifted from angel
Was you,
My friend.
