That Day.. July 17th 2014

Five years later and I still remember

that heartbreaking day just as it were yesterday

That day was July 17th, 2014

keeping them with me seemed so hard

I tried!!

But lies were told and tears fell heavily

as they were both ripped from my own two arms

he is now 14 and she is 11.

I want them to hear the truth

I want them to hold their heads up high

They have sworn that they are happy

But, this just can’t be true!

If I had to choose

between loving them or breathing

I would use my last breath

just to tell them I love them to the moon and back

I will always love them and

I will always be there

to catch them if they happen to fall

One day, I hope they see the truth of it all.

I hope they think of all the

Happy memories and forget all the negative ones

From that fateful day five years ago!

My heart is broken into pieces from this

huge distance between us.

I pray for god to watch over them and

help them continue to stay strong and pray

for the three of us to be together again

just as I do everyday
