My love, you were dreamt into existence. You were no longer just a happy possibility—you were now my reality. I created you, my body cradling you, so gently, nurturing your delicate life into being. I was infatuated, all consumed, blissfully thanking my lucky stars. Your existence gave me new hope; a purpose I knew I was made for. Everything was falling into place—finally. But, as quickly as you blessed my life, you were just as swiftly taken away. The pain so soul-shattering there are no words profound enough to describe its harrowing magnitude.
I howled painfully into the night sky for our creator to take away anything else, to take every prized possession I owned, but to please let me keep my baby. Oh, how I would have given anything to keep you with me.
That night, a piece of my soul died with you. And all I can do now is find solace in knowing you will forever be the most loved and cherished thing I almost had, my honey child.
