Child Mine

Precious jewel of my heart  
you possess unrivaled strength
 
Your mind is a prism, refracting truth  
Agonizingly simple and yet  
there are those who try to obfuscate
 
Dear child, walk fearless  
It is in the between the lines  
where adults try to read  
failing to appreciate you.

Your beauty, not of physicality  
rarest countenance of intellect  
a treasure beyond compare  
yours as easy as breathing
