TEMPORARY by John Bucchino-listen to it, trust me
Honey come here, I have something to tell you. It wont make things perfect and it may not make sense but some day you'll see it as clear as my smile. Do you know the word TEMPORARY? It means only for a little while.
And everything is temporary.
A friend moves, a tooth aches, a pet dies, a toy breaks.
The detours a life takes...temporary.
Everything is temporary.
A storm clears, a tear dries, a wing heals, a bird flies. The trust lighting your eyes...temporary.
I know you want things to stay the same. I know its hard to watch a childhood going up smoke. It's hard for me to watch a child who's growing up, and choke back all he warning I could scream to protect you from the things that aren't solid as they seem.
But then, I'm only temporary...
Everything is temporary.
A child leaves, a heart breaks, a love dies, a world shakes. The difference one life makes...temporary.
The trick is: Hold it now as tightly as you can. Whether it's your favorite toy or a sad little boy who's trying hard to be a brave little man. Hold it tighter 'cause you know you'll have to let it go...If you learn this, though, you won't feel so sad: A playmate, a tear stain, a Christmas, a dad...the best times, the worst pain, all...temporary.
