Letters to Kairi 9/19/13

So today we went to your funeral
Today was supposed to happen so that
We could start saying goodbye...
But damn it
I can't do it.
I can't say goodbye to the sweetest
Most angelic smile, the most adored
Child I've ever held....
And the most surreal part
Is that you were mine
That you came from me
That I held you in my arms
Every day for nine weeks and
Now my arms are empty
Aching
And there are no answers
That are good enough
To give solace
No words spoken today
That gave peace
That gave comfort
Because until you're back
In my arms,
Empty they'll
Remain
