You grew up
I remember when I first held you in my arms, your tiny fingers clenched in a fist,
And your eyes closed, your small head with hairs that could be counted, I smiled, with tears threatening to fall, how could I be so lucky?
You grew up.
The first step you took, I screamed. Louder than I have for any test, any success, or any opportunity I was graced with, you grew up.
The first big meal you had that shook us to death, the first cuddle, the first cry, and the very first time you got sick and I couldn't even concentrate in college, still, in the midst of, you grew up.
When you went to our granny for the first very time, and how dull the house was thereafter and the million and one baths, some you loved and others you just loathed and cried, still my baby, you grew up.
And when you uttered your first words, 'me too', I knew then that you were my peculiar even, my prayers answered, and heaven itself, residing in a form of an angel, still my love, you grew up.
Your tantrums that you...
