Cradle

Will I ever remember?
That warmth tugs at my soul,
leaving me to wonder how and when I strayed.
The cradle that is you,
giving we warmth and tenderness.

How is it that I failed to recall?
When all that really mattered was you.
Where have you been all my life?
Will you not let me return?

Let me feel the inner peace
only your love brings.
Nothing in this life is ever certain,
we all must do our time.

Take me back to that cradle,
let me be a child once again.
Knowing nothing else but joy.
Joy in the cradle of your love.
