1097 Days Ago

1097 days ago I watched her play, smile, and laugh.

1097 days ago I played with her beautiful hair and looked into those all knowing eyes.

1097 days ago she completed her last swim class.

1097 days ago she sat on my lap.

1097 days ago I hugged her.

1097 days ago I kissed her goodnight – for the last time.

1097 days ago I didn’t know that heart ache physically hurts.

1097 days ago I never knew such darkness existed.

1097 days ago I didn’t know I could scream so loud.

1097 days ago I didn’t know that life would never be the same again.

How I wish I could go back 1097 days and tell her I love her.

Kiss her.

Never let her go.

Three years is too long without you Phoenix, my love.

It’s been a long time since I checked in on you. For some reason you were on my mind. I am just a stranger from a far & feel compassion for your heartbreak. I will pray that your road gets easier, and your children stay healthy.
