I saw the look in your eyes, for the last time, knowing inside, I had to leave you behind, the look on your face, was a look of alarm, when you heard me sobbing , when I was pulled from your arms, and taken away, wondering will I see you again, on some other day. You will ache for my laughter, and long to wipe my tears, holding on to my memories, throughout passing years, of my life going by, wishing you could and come see me, just to say hi, no one will understand our bond or our pain, so mommy. . . goodbye.
