If She Only Knew

Contributed by jaeann on Wednesday, 1st October 2003 @ 11:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: Grief



Does she know
I should have stayed
to hold her,
one last time to
tell her stories....
one last time
to hear her laugh?

Does she know I
love her with all
my heart?

Does she know
it was not her that
was cause for resentment....
never her....
only what it had
done to her....our life?

Does she know I
would've carried her
the rest of my life just
to protect her?

Does she know I
would've taken over....
to end it all,
so she could live free?

Does she know
how hard it was to close
the door...
lay the flowers down
and walk away?

Does she know I
touch the pillow
where she slept
and rock the baby that
sang pretty music to her?

Does she know I
kiss her smilling face
everyday?

Does she know
my tears fall
as I remember
"Mommy, I want to hold you"
and my arms
ache to do so?

Does she know
the only thing
that keeps me going
is the dream
that she's running free?

Does she know?
