I never saw you <br />I never touched your soft skin <br />I never felt you <br />I never looked into your eyes <br /> <br />You never felt my love <br />Or touched my skin <br />You never felt me <br />You never looked into my eyes <br />Yet I still loved you <br /> <br />Though we will never meet, <br />I always carry you in my heart and mind <br />You are a part of me and me you <br />We are one <br /> <br />I never got to show you how much love I have <br />I never got to lift you when you fell <br />I never got to smile when you achieved <br />Yet am still so proud of you <br /> <br />I am sorry you never got to see the sun <br />Or the beautiful birds, <br />That sing ever so beautifully, <br />Or the flowers of the spring. <br /> <br />You never got to make friends <br />Or experience your first love <br />And heart break <br />All of which make us human <br /> <br />I wish I could turn back time <br />I would do things differently <br />I would fight for you <br />Give up my self for you <br /> <br />I hope you forgive me <br />Where ever you are <br />I was naïve and afraid <br />But still I loved you <br /> <br />I will forever keep you in my heart and mind <br />You are apart of me and me you <br />We are one<br /><br />Elizabeth Jacqueline Mpanga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-my-son-daughter/
