my life after my daughter left me Alone And Forgotten

heartbreak

I woke one day to hear my adopted daughter say " Daddy, i can't live with you anymore".
Why not baby? I asked.
I'm not used to hardship and suffering. I would rather go to a place with walls and heat and cool, even if it is filled with hatred, guilt and battering, than continue living with your love, without walls.
As old and learned as i am, i could think of nothing to say to refute this. I understood the need for comfort, i needed it as well, long long ago.
"My daughter, my love, my life, i would never prevent your happiness. I know the need for comfort, though not for a long time. You see, i have had many comforts, much money and grand power. I learned to love those things as i loved no person, ever.
Daughter, I will help you achieve whatever your heart desires, no matter the cost to me. For i know and truly understand love. Though it may well kill me, and knowing this comfort is temporary and illusion, i must let you live your life, your way.
That was the last time i truly held my daughter kaylene close to my heart, feeling the last of her love melting away. Knowing she was exchanging the only love she had known, for a temporary comfort.
