Dear Me, You’ve been left with so many questions. Why did this happen? You need to know. The worst thing happened to you. Grief. Damaging. Help me grow my own pair of wings. I want to be free from the misery. Life has no guarantees. Please help me. Xoxo- Me

Dear Me, She’s put her mark on you Nothing can separate you from her. Your love. Eternity. Your life has been full of happiness as well as pain. Sadness. Soul searching. Growing. You see things differently. Don’t live in fear. Just be yourself. Always changing. I guess this is what it’s like to grow up. Don’t ever forget what you’ve gone through. Expand gratitude. Enjoy your life. Remember positivity is contagious. You will make it…

I need to break through. Deaths snare. I will escape it somehow. Cutting through the cords of death. Coming up from the depths. Pulling myself back up. Crying out to you. Fruit of my womb.

Dear Avie, Everything we did together has been frozen in time. Within these pictures. Always in my mind. I will never forget you. Honoring you. Remembering you. Forever. We didn’t have many days together. Nine hundred and six days. That wasn’t enough time. You were only two. Your third birthday was celebrated without you. Come to my rescue. I’m drowning. Gasping for air. The water fills up my lungs. Your hands lift me up. Bringing…
