My Asliea

My Asliea Though I did not carry you in my womb Our heart beats are entwined together. I may never be able to show you how much Loving you has made my life so much better. But know that when I look into your big brown eyes I see myself there, our bond is closer than blood. We will never need more than that to prove The strength of the love between us. You’re my daughter because I feel you inside my heart You take up such a big and beautiful part of my soul. And if my life missed your face, the lovely spirit you have I would not and could never be truly be whole. You and your Brother taught me how to be a mother. I have an unconditional love for you I never could have imagined. Nothing in this world or any other could break us apart. I would die before leaving you un-consoled or abandoned. I hope you can take some of my wisdom and lessons with you And when you’re old I hope you cherish both our shared tears and laughter Because some of my most treasured memories will always be of you Asliea. My peaceful, loving, and beautiful first born daughter.
