Sometimes, I want to run as far from you as possible, but force myself to stay.
Sometimes, I want to stay so badly, but the pain is so deep I must force myself to leave.
Sometimes, I want to turn the clock back and have you all to myself.
All the time, I know that's not right for you, me, or any of us.
All the time, I can't make it through reading our favorite books together without crying.
Most times, I can't kiss your sweet face without thinking I won't be able to anytime I want.
All the time, I memorize your soft skin with my fingers so as never to forget.
Sometimes, there is nowhere in this world I would rather be than with you!
Sometimes, I think of a day without you, and I have to stop...
Sometimes, I have to leave the room because I've cried enough in front of you.
All the time, it's beyond words to watch you fade away.
Sometimes, I am so happy for you not to be in this broken body anymore, my heart leaps!
All the time, I love our heart to heart talks.
All the time, I love to cuddle you up in the nest with Daddy and Rainey.
Sometimes, I am incredibly sad when you don't eat.
Sometimes, I am incredibly happy when you don't eat.
All the time, I love crawling into bed with you in the morning.
Most times, when you are despondent - I can handle it, as I understand.
Sometimes, it makes me want to leave home and never come back.
Sometimes, when you are gone...I will smile in a big way.
Sometimes, I won't.
