My Sacrifice
There is not a day that goes by
That I can’t shake the empty
Feeling I have inside.
I should be happy, when I see you.
I know I should not cry.
But my emotions take over me
And I cannot keep a dry eye.
Just know, what I have done
I did it all for you.
Your father was not around
What else was I to do?
I made the decision
To give you the best.
Even though by doing this,
I ripped my heart from my chest.
I sacrificed my happiness
To change so many lives.
And I keep it all to myself
So nobody hears my cries.
I cannot explain the hurt
From the pain that I feel.
I just pray in time
My heart will eventually heal.
So many things happened
There was not a lot to do.
I am so sorry.
It is like I never fought for you.
God lead me to this
I was meant to share my gift.
To make so many happy
And happiness is bliss.
When the moment finally came
Your mommy was so glad.
She even shed a tear
Because I was so sad.
I still get to see you grow
For this I am truly blessed.
I did a great job
Your mom and dad are the best.
We may have physically parted,
But in my heart you will FOREVER
Stay.
I love you little girl,
Each and every day!!
