My child, tonight I saw a hurt in your eyes that slashed through my heart like a blunt knife leaving it tattered and torn. How could I have been so blind for your anguish? How could I not have seen your bruises? How could I have allowed the demons of the ancestors with their skewed and distorted ideas of life to cast their spell on your innocent life tormenting your soul with ideas of unworthiness? How could I have allowed the past to steal your happiness leaving you barren and distressed? Like the grim reaper they attacked your fragile being, chaining you to a past so horrid, it surpasses all reason. They stole your youth leaving you empty – a blank space looking, seeking searching but coming up empty handed every time. I bleed for you. I cry for you. I hurt for you. I will die for you. I will give my very last breath so that you can live the life you were meant to live! I cannot right all the wrongs, I cannot take back all the hurtful words, I cannot go back to the past and love you all over again. I cannot fill all the missing roles in your life. I can only try to open my frigid heart and show you – it beats for you with a passion unbeknownst to man. You are my first born, my first love, my beginning and end. I nearly lost you to arrogance and intolerance. Can you forgive me and give me another chance to fill your soul with laughter and your heart with love. I want to hold you in my arms and tell you all will be well again. I want to hold and never let go. I want to eradicate the past and cast it into eternal darkness. I want to love like you like you were meant to be loved, unconditionally. I want to comfort you and try and take your pain away. I want to start anew and blow through your life like a fresh autumn breeze. I want you to find comfort in my presence so that the light will shine from your beautiful eyes once more. I want you to have a splendid life filled with hope, excitement and contentment - forever daring to go bolder - because you can. Your future lies before you like pure driven snow anticipating your first footsteps - eagerly waiting for your presence in this magnificent new world called adulthood which I know you will colour with all the crayons of your beautiful life.
