The love I miss while she's away
my love, my lifeline, my soul's comfort
This beautiful creature that I helped create
The innocence that I brought into a wicked world.
I love her so
She keeps my head on straight
Away from her is nothing but confusion
No direction, no reason to go home
No reason to sleep,
no reason to look forward to another day without her.
But in her name I find Hope
I find the love I long for in her arms.
Her eskimo kisses bring tears to my soul.
Her butterfly kisses put smiles in my eyes.
Her little embrace fulfills my every need.
If anything I need in this world, it is she
If anything I long for is to hear her precious voice.
She is a jewel found in the eyes of God.
Her pain makes the deepest cut in my heart.
Her cries I hear in my minds ears
and I reach for her
She knows me
She knows my hurts and sorrows
But she also knows better than I.
God whispers in her ears,
"Comfort thy mother, child, for she is pained."
she listens to the soft whisper
And I hurt no more
This poem is dedicated to the love of my life, my daughter, Hope Elizabeth who is away from me with her daddy. To have to share her love and affection is the most painful thing I have had to endure and will ever endure. I want to be selfish, but know I can't. Forget the divorce, forget the heartache I've suffered all my life, a mother away from her child is a tragic thing.
