Unborn Treasure

Unborn Treasure
By Clive Lee Welch
(Dedicated to Sky)

Our eyes never met in wakeful hours,
My own cherished blood the loss of which devours.
I guess I may not ever know if you understood,
How your fragile life was over before it should.

Yet still your own brown eyes had met with mine,
Amidst a torrid nightmare you became my v-sign,
Whilst I ran in darkness from fears that were unseen,
You appeared and stopped me, my own little queen.
Smiling softly with wisdom beyond your years,
You awoke me before I drowned in my own tears.
