It's okay, I'm here to help,
Don't let your tears be felt.
Let me wipe them all away,
And hold you close until the day.
Stop your worries, cease your cries,
Just rest your head and close your eyes.
Sleep on my lap, let go of fear,
I'll always be here, forever near.
Everything will be okay,
Together we'll find a way.

I sip my iced coffee while reading the letter I wrote for you. Since then, I've felt waves of missing you resurfacing. I've been finding shards of you all around the house. Your cautious smile in a photograph, slowly fading like we are. Your clean handwriting in an old journal, vowing your presence will be here forever..
