I love you

This is the love of my life.

I loved you the moment I laid eyes on you

it was such a miracle from my tummy so new

your apgar score not too good

but you are a fighter like you should

be like mommy and take you home

and watch you grow up all alone

each stage of your life more amazing

sometimes very verbal and craving

almost more attention than I could give

but it was so important for you to live

a healthy life and get fulfilled with your needs

just like a garden getting all of its seeds

I bonded with you so strongly and loved you more

than I ever loved anyone in the whole wide world

until that day you were grown

with a little baby girl of your own

and your boyfriend got so mad

that he strangled you with everything he had

and you took my heart with you forever

I can't live here with you in it never

you are the love of my life

even if it came with this strife

I love you......

Pain is more than the death of the moon.. the ache seems to grow and grow in the darker than dark. And so does the intensity of your emotions in this post. To release words by presenting them in such detail is more than heroic. Some would call the deed cathartic or hopefully cathartic.. others would say, and I'm one, that when a pain is burned into the skin, it never goes away.. it's become part of the sufferer and needs its own voice to whisper what.. one day.

Paul Bell sent me hear to read .. i hope that this is not confessional, kyam ... the tragedy and weeping strike my heart ... i am so sorry for the loss you express ..and it happens every single day ...such horror and violence ... prayer and peace and comfort to all ... so sorry :{

I'm glad that you are writing these feelings out and sharing them instead of bottling them up. It's one of the best things you can do. As a fellow parent, I understand the love a parent has for a child and I could never imagine how strong of a woman you are. I'll be fair with my critique, but I loved it. Even though I've never met you, I felt like I was connected with you while I was reading it. I dropped my rating a little bit because I think it would be better if you went back and edited some of it (i.e. punctuation, paragraph breaks). I enjoyed the rhyming and I feel deeply connected to this poem.

Rating: 9/10.

Kyam,
I see you've not been on for a while; so, I'm not sure you'll ever read this, but I feel compelled to express how very much this poem touched and impressed me, both as a parent and an experienced poet.
In reading through your profile comments and this tenderly sad, gripping account of birthing, nourishing, tending to and loving your darling daughter, only to lose her literally broke my heart from the sheer power of your poetical expression, intimately shared emotion, and your words took on a life all their own in such a way I felt as though I was in your skin with you, and I love the continual, uninterrupted flow of your story as it unfolds from the moment you laid eyes on her until, alas, losing her.
A minor miracle for me, but the reality of your words hit me so vividly I actually cried, and am having a time of it not doing so as I type this to you.
It might seem odd to you that I would say this is beautiful, but the bonded relationship between you and your daughter, and your shared love is more beautiful that mere words, and it fills my heart that you found the wherewithal to compose this all important poem, releasing your impossible ache and pain out upon the page; for, I can feel how very important (even necessary) for you to do so … to get it out, and I hope you keep until every word that escapes your mind, heart, and soul becomes a safe and loving haven for yours and your wonderful daughter's time together.

Enough said, but I am more than honored and humbled to have read this amazing poem, "I love you", and in the embrace of this this moment, I do … bless you, Kyam 🌸

Thank you for feeling my words and feeling between my daughter and I. I think God gave her to me to show me the maximum of love. I have a biography written that I will allow you to read, it was before Kymber was murdered. I do not allow people to read it because I want no empathy from anyone, because God is with me and I'm fine. My book is Ginas Gang on Amazon, but if you read it please leave me a good review.....Thank you for everything you've had to say....Kyam....also Bless you....

I shall read it posthaste, Kyam … thank you for your warming trust and the humbling honor! ⁓ Richard
