Danny's Day

Today is the Day
You should have come screaming into my world
Wanting to be fed
Needing to be warmed
Demanding of me

Today is the Day
I would turn the clocks back to recover
And I would shelter you
Feed you forever
Watch you grow into your glory

Today is the Day
I never had
I will miss it always
Today and all the days next
That you did not come to me
Safe and warm
Pink and hungry
Ready for me to love you

So today is the Day
My hands itch to hold you
My heart aches not to have you
As it will always be for me
On Danny's Day
