I know there are so many calls on your time and your money. I know you dont want to be guilted into doing something that scares you. I know you all care about children with cancer and their families so I wont make out you dont.
I feel so tired and I miss my girl so very very much. This time five years ago she was dying in our arms. Tommorow is the 5th annivesary of her death.
Five years since I held her. Five years since I heard her. Five years since I stroked her hair and kissed her neck.
She had so much to give the world. She was so clever and kind and beautiful and funny. So sharp but never mean.
We fall to the earth like leaves
Lives as brief as footprints in snow
No words express the grief we feel
I feel I cannot let her go.
For she is everywhere.
Walking on the windswept beach
Talking in the sunlit square.
Next to me in the car
I see her sitting there.
At night she dreams me
and in the morning the sun does not rise.
My life is as thin as the wind
And I am done with counting stars.
She is gone, she is gone.
I am her sad music, and I play on, and on, and on.
Thank you.
