You were there
It was there
small and fragile
It was there
hopeful and waiting
It was there
fighting but failing
To Thrive
It was there
But now
it is gone
I miss it
without ever knowing
what it would have been
I wonder
looking back now
how it might have changed me
I still cry
for the loss of it.
For the emptiness inside
It was there
But now
It is gone.
I don't know that I ever said goodbye
or ever will be able to...
so Goodbye for now, till the next time
My heart becomes heavy
with the weight of your absence
You were there,
But now you are gone
Goodbye-
for now.
My Child.
