I battle within myself about the things I sacrificed
Given up aspects of my life for selfish reasoning and pride
The concept of another taking what I left behind was not conceived
But now the hardest part is accepting reality
How do I contain the rage that seems to build at each thought?
I have to let go and face the fact-
That someone else will pick up where I left off
Hurt is what I feel for all the things they will achieve
She will hold another's hand and call her "Mommy"
Will I learn to live with what I've done?
I changed her life and now she'll move on
My sweet little one from me you were born
But now it'll be another that waits for you to come home
Your arms she will feel in a loving embrace
Bedtime stories and confection kisses, she'll take my place
Will you feel I abandoned you and your love I gave away?
I never meant to hurt yoou or for things to be this way
Please baby girl know that no matter what-
Mommy always loves you with every beat of her heart
No matter the distance or the choices I make
Your always my daughter which no one can replace
I hope when your older that you will understand
Things between me and Daddy somehow went bad
Please hold on the memory in your heart and never let go
I'll always be with you as you learn and grow
Whatever you need- please trust that I'll do
Your my sweet sunshine baby and I'll always love you
