My Only Wish

I sat up late last night for I could not sleep, I lay awake for thoughts in my head would creep. The thought of one day I would die, The thought that one day you wouldn’t be by my side. I could not bare being without you baby girl, For you are my everything, my world. I love you with every beat of my heart, I could not stand ever being apart. If it is true you could wish on a star, I would not wish for money or a fancy car. The wish I would ask to come true, Would to be on this earth just as long as you. I would wish for us both to live forever, So we would never have to say good-bye, never. That would be my only wish for I need nothing else in this world, But only you Jori, my sweet little girl.

Jessica, this is truly beautiful, this brought tears to my eyes, I have a little girl, my only child and I love her more than anything, I prayed for her, cried for her, waited for her, and I cherish her and would be lost without her. You really caught the soul of this reader, Excellent poem, Thank you so much for sharing...God Bless you *Tyesha
