One Day.


I hope that 

One day

When my child comes home 

With the burden of a broken first love 

Welling up and shining in the corners of their beautiful eyes 

That I can wrap my arms around them 

And remember you with a smile 

As I whisper 

¨My dear, it will not always hurt this terribly.¨
