Almost a month away now
I would have been holding you in my arms
Hearing you cry for the first time
Feeling your tiny hand gripping onto my finger
Smelling the sweet scent on your little head
Memorizing all of your precious features
Do you look like me?
Do you look like your daddy?
Checking on you every few seconds,
Making sure I can hear your little breaths
In complete awe of all the wonder in your eyes
Dreaming of how it would have felt to hold you close to my heart
I never thought I could feel so much love and pain all at once
But saying goodbye to you before I could actually meet you
Will always be my greatest heartbreak.
