I didn't think that I would have to say goodbye so soon.
that Monday you were here, but Wednesday came and went, and so did half of my heart.
I knew that at some point I would be forced to face this world without you but I refused to think about that part.
no more hugs, no more laughs, no more advice and jokes to be told. my family is just like this world and sometimes can be cold.
walking into your room feeling the cold and loneliness sends me straight to my wine glass.
you still had a lot to show me, for these tests of life that I hope I pass.
I can see your face when I close my eyes, I awaken to the realization it was only a dream. one that I didn't want to wake from, sometimes it makes me scream.
I miss you so much but I have to stay strong, I feel so alone, this house doesn't feel like home.
you've raised a strong young woman, and for that I am.
I'm taking the baton to carry the torch with my heart in my hands.
I love you so and this pain won't go, I cry day and night but you're still out of sight.
I will see you again and for that I am sure. I've stored what you've taught me and will conquer the world.
I love you, Mommy...
