Missing My Ladybug

THE TEARS OF MY SOUL REMAIN WHILE THE TEARS OF MY PHYSICAL DISAPPEAR...

I AM PROHIBITED FROM MY DAUGHTER'S VOICE WHICH I YEARN TO HEAR...

SHE IS THE FIRST LOVE OF MY LIFE...

THE REASON FOR MY JOYFUL CRIES...

IT PAINS ME NOT TO SEE HER...

NOT TO HEAR HER OR BE NEAR HER... 

I LOVE HER WITH EVERY OUNCE OF LIFE IN ME...

AND WITHOUT HER MY BEING FEELS SO EMPTY...

I PRAY FOR HER NOT TO QUESTION MY LOVE...

OR FOR HATE NOT TO TAKE OVER HER LOVE...

I HOPE SHE KNOWS IN HER HEART THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE...

EVEN WITH THIS DISTANCE MY LOVE FOR HER WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL...

I WISH THAT GOD WOULD TOUCH HER MOTHER'S HEART...

TAKE AWAY HER ANGER SO THAT ME AND MY DAUGHTER COULD TALK...

I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR HER EVEN THOUGH SHE SENDS HER EVIL MY WAY...

I THOUGHT WITH TIME IT WOULD HAVE HELPED CHANGE HER WAYS...

I TRIED, BUT I COULD NOT HOLD THIS IN ANOTHER DAY...

MISSING MY LADYBUG...
