I know you will listen.....so
will you listen to my Pain? Yes...
Here Teddy don't forget it is a secret!
" You have be Bad again "...
So teddy I thought
Maybe that you might know...
What crime I did, I really don't remember...
When I woke up this morning,
I knew that she was mad;
Because she was crying ,
And was yelling at my dad.
I tried my best to be real good,
And do just what she said;
I cleaned my room all by myself,
I even made my big bed....
But I spilled milk on my good blouse,
When she yelled at me to hurry;
I guess she didn't heard me,
When i told her "I was so sorry."
Because she did push me hard, you see,
And called me funny names;
And told I was really bad,
And that I should be ashamed!
When I said, " I love you, Mommy! "
I guess she didn't understand;
Because she yelled to hurry up
Or I will get smacked again...
So, I came up here to talk to you,
Please tell me what to do?
Because I really love my Mommy,
And I know she loves me too.
And I don't think my Mommy means,
To hit me quite so hard;
I guess sometime grown-ups forget
How really big they are !
So Teddy, I wish you were real,
And you weren't just a bear;
Then you could help me find a way
To tell Mommies everywhere...
To please try hard to understand,
How sad it makes us feel;
'Cause the outside pain soon goes away,
But the inside never ever heals!
And if we could make them listen,
Maybe then they would understand;
So other children just like me,
Wouldn't have to hurt again....
But for now, I guess I'll hold you tight,
And pretend the pain is not there...
I know You will never hurt me Teddy...
So " Goodnight...Teddy Bear! "
You are so soft and warm...
it comfort me to sleep with you...
I want to tell you how I love YOU!
I know if you were able to talk
You will say " I love you Too! "
