If I just said,
What you did not dare to.
If I just touched you,
As if it was a goodbye.
If I just held you,
Through the night.
Did I ever tell you?
Did you know I was there? Beside you.
Behind the door, as I could not look.
Seeing you fade, while I was bearing a life.
I could not grieve for you, my love.
I had to let you go.
Your death replaced by life.
I meet you sometimes, did you know?
We do not talk. We just look at each other.
When I walked the streets so she would sleep, I cried for you.
When she dances, I see you.
I lost you, but I also lost part of myself.
I yearn for what I lost the day I buried you.
A part that will forever be lost.
But then found, in dreams, you appear in.
The nothing that surrounds me, if for only one minute, something. That is mine, that is yours. That is us.
Me and you.
If I could live just one day, where I get to be a mom....and a daughter.
If I could just tell you...
