There are many first on my birthday today. <br />This is my first birthday that I had a daughter Louise Wayne, <br />She will be turning one, while I am turning Thirty nine, <br />Many long years of unexpected labor of love <br />but regretting is far from my mind. <br /> <br />This is my first birthday that my father gone to heaven. <br />This is my first birthday that I will thank him, <br />Fronting his tomb. <br />For he knows that I love him and I regret the days that I did not come home to see him, <br />I love my father and I miss him. <br /> <br />This is my first birthday when the man I love left me, <br />For some reasons, whatever it is, I do not understand. <br />My world revolves around him, my heart is for him. I love him anyway. <br /> <br />This is my first birthday of happy and sad one, <br />I had a daughter, who gave me strength to face a new day everyday, <br />I will celebrate my many years here on earth fatherless, <br />And I will blow my candles and drink my wine, without my man beside me. <br /> <br />Whatever it is, I believe that God intends me to live long thirtyty nine years for a reason. <br />Yes, I had a daughter. <br />Eventhough my father gone to heaven, he will always alive here forever in my heart. <br />And with the man I love? There are always a second chance.<br /><br />mercy ferriols<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/happy-birthday-to-me-11/
