For K., at Seven Years Old

I want to tell you that it's ok,
you won't be in school forever.
That someday you won't want
your mom with you all the time.
Your voice is all I needed to hear
to know the sadness inside.
So young, so sensitive to the world,
I will guard you to the end of my life.
Dearest K, you have already set
the world alight, if only you could see.
I see it in all you are, My Dear One.
