Please don't feel like you are losing a daughter.
Don't feel like you are losing what once was.
Things change.
Sometimes a transition is what a person needs.
What they need to live on.
Please mum, don't cry.
Don't make me wipe those tears from your eyes.
Look me in the eyes!
Please!
I'm still here and I will always be.
I know its not what you use to see.
But I need to be free.
To be happy.
You always said that's all you wanted for me.
No, don't say you have a hole in your heart.
Look at me!
I stand here before you, never letting you go.
I never said I was leaving, yes I'm changing.
But into the person I need to be.
Why won't you look at me?
I'm not the person you use to see?
I know.
I understand.
Your daughter has died.
I know.
But your son lives on.
