Four Long Years

It’s been four years since we’ve seen each other face to face, But I know we’ll be together again soon enough. The adoption was hard, but it gave us a little space. Getting back into a routine may be a bit rough. I know I was young and I made a few mistakes, But I feel I’ve grown a lot mentally since then. A little forgiveness and difference that it makes Would mean the world to me and I would feel loved again. I have a recurring dream that I hope will come true. It’s about you and me when we stay up really late. We play games and do the things mothers and daughters do. I hope my prayers will be answered before I turn eight.
