It was hard leaving you




Dear William,

It was hard leaving you
because I know
no one understands like I do.

It was hard seeing your eyes
wet and afraid,
feeling your hand tightly gripping mine.

It was hard watching you
through the window,
not knowing whether to stay or to go,
wanting to grab you and take you home.

It was hard walking away,
every step indecisive 
but knowing as your mother
sometimes I have to.

Love Mummy x
