[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 673259, member: 19522"] You know what Copa? It's raining really hard over here, and it's supposed to rain like this for the next week. It has been making me sad and my thoughts turn to my daughter, I call her Rain, and she is out there in the rain. I was thinking that I would have a little notebook around when my thoughts go that way, and write stuff down, to let it out. I don't think it is a bad thing to let our hearts speak about our gifts from God. Especially when we are at a point where speaking [I]with [/I]them is not working. Or, we can't speak with them, because of no contact. So here is my first note to my daughter Rain, in a poem. [U] Its Raining[/U] With each drop falling down to the ground my thoughts turn to you. Its been so many years, I have to face my fears release them with my tears and look up to the sky. I just cannot find a rhyme or reason why your life became this way. So I turn to God and pray to take all of our pain away. Lord, please keep my girl close to You cause there's nothing in this world that I could say or do, to make it better. Oh, my daughter, we tried so many things. In the long run you just had to spread your wings. In your eyes I see the misery that you are going through I would love to keep on holding you soothing you. [I]It's not up to me it's up to you I had to set you free.[/I] Fully grown into a woman, you are not a little child and I've done all that I can do to teach you right from wrong. [I]I pray you find your life song.[/I] There's nothing in this world that I could say or do, to make it better. In this house with me, you could not grow I had to let you go. I miss the you, I used to know. Sometimes it hurts me so. One day I hope you'll look at me with that old love light in your eyes. 'Til then I will look up to the sky every time I need to cry. I will pray for you and hope that you find what your'e searching for. Find an open door. Discover you are beautiful and do all that you can do to celebrate the real you. My daughter, I do love you and know that God above you will hear my prayer you're in his care, and He will find you anywhere. I put my trust in Him and in this, I shall have faith and hope and not despair. In spite of all that's been said and done you are still my precious one. Love always, your Mom leafy Would a notebook work for you Copa? When you want to call your son, but are hesitant, maybe you could write down what you would say to him, if you could speak with him like you used to. (((HUGS))) leafy [/QUOTE]
