Today I Said Goodbye

This is possibly the hardest thing I have EVER had to do!!!!!!

I died a bit today.

I’m sorry,

But I had to let you go.

It kills me to know

That I will never know you.

Destroys me to know

That I will never have you back.

I’m sorry Samantha,

But it’s time that I

Grow up and accept the truth.

It’s time I faced reality –

You’re gone,

And I will never have the honour

Of looking at your beautiful face;

Of seeing that innocent smile;

Of watching you sleep in peace.

I just cannot handle

The thought that I would now be a mom.

I cannot deal with

The idea that you would be my baby girl.

So this is goodbye, my angel.

Although I am letting you go,

I will never forget you…

I’m sorry for everything.

I love you.

This is so dramatically sad and I almost forgot to take a breath when I was finished reading....wow!

One thing. Maybe I am wrong but I think in this line:
I'm sorry Samantha,
You need the comma BeFoRe Samantha instead of after? Just wondering.....

Cheers, lea

Such a powerful, heartbreaking passage... Breaks my heart to read it... I can't imagine the pain in your heart right now... So very sorry.
