Best of Ways

I bear witness to your innocence
and for its preservation I do pray
For your safety and my vigilance
It breaks my heart
in the best of ways

The student and the teacher
these are the roles we trade
We are but briefly sinless creatures
It breaks my heart 
in the best of ways

At night I hope you dream 
of something better than what waits
after childhood colors fade
to grown-up gray
It breaks my heart 
in the best of ways

A piece for all the Momma’s and Daddy’s out there; the veterans and the newly initiated. What the rest of the world is searching for, we’ve found. 

Love,
