Letter to Hope



Letter to Hope, our Daughter

Hope can you hear me from so high above.
I heard you cry for a moment, then you were silent.
Your face gave it away, you were to become an angel.
I know you saw your father and I, your face gave it away.
Your breathing was so shallow it terrified me.
Were you in pain?
I just wanted you to stay with me for just one more moment.
Just one more moment I could have cherished,
just one more moment so I could have said I love you just once more.
I held you while you died , this is some comfort to me.
I know you are in a better place now.
I know that's where you were meant to be.
But I still wish you were here with me.
Please wait for me when I cross those gates.
I can't wait to see you, I'm sure you are so beautiful.
I know your grandfather and grandmother are with you there,
I know they look after you.
But after all, the only true place you belong is here with me.
I love you Hope
