The Tears Fall

I can't help the tears,
They fall without reason,
They fall without warning.
For so long now I've cried for you,
I wonder can these tears ever end?
My baby girl is growing up without me there,
What can I do?
I mad a decision I regret.
I thought I did what was best.
Now I know I did what others wanted me to.
I have nothing but a few pictures of her.
She's a baby no more though.
Who does she look like?  Me or her father?
I may never get to know.
How I just wish the years would pass,
So that I can find her and tell her what she meant to me.
That I love my only child.
Though I wasn't a part of her life, not a day went by where she wasn't in my thoughts.
Does she hate me for letting her go?
Can she ever forgive me for being so young when sh was born?
Where ever you are my little one, know I love you.
Know I think of you everyday.
Even though I wasn't a part of your life,
And this is perhaps why the tears fall...
