Through the laughter our memories bring me, and the tears of new ones we will never make. Our girls are everything you would have dreamed of, those same movies, oh, for goodness sake...

Your sparkle shines through both of them, I wish you could just see, for one tiny second - how much you're loved and missed, how cherished you’ll always be.

I wish there was someone to blame, because you were not theirs to take. I’m still only half a person, still winging it for two. Making sure those tequila shots are racking up tallies for just me and you.

 

Grief has gotten easier, but you're
Eternally missed.
Tomorrow may bring
Love and light, But,
Only when I see you again
Will it forever be back to bright.
