PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You touch me like you have a million times

Just this time is slightly different

Your warm embrace

Brings me to tears

For I know after this hug

I will not see you for awhile

There will be no more late night ice creams

Or breakfasts in bed when I am not sick

There will be no more good morning kisses

Or “see you when I get home from work” s

In my four year old brain I know

This is not my fault

You and mom need some time apart

But my heart is breaking

One last thing before you leave

Always remember I am a princess

And I love you, daddy
