Some days when I am busy and tied down
I meet your smile with a frown

You want to tell me about your day
I say, “Later”, and you go away

You want to show me something you made
Wait, I say, and forget instead.

You want me to join in your songs and rhyme
I say “Not now, I do not have time”

I convince myself I am doing my best
By providing you with a cozy nest

I drown the guilt thinking time will stall
Some day I will fulfill your dreams, big and small

I just hope that the time will come
When you'd understand..
I don't purposely do what I am doing...

I also hope that if only one day ..
One day that I might not be so busy..
I would spend the whole day..
Just by being with you...
