I'll cry eighteen tears for you, I hate what I had to do to make your life a little better. I hope you can forgive me, be happy and out live me, just know I mean every letter. You were my sunshine, my light in the dark times, every day without you makes me so empty. We were always so close, what I miss the most, is the time we shared and we had plenty. I pray God will bring you, before I'm worn like an old shoe, my love for you only grows stronger. I'll never give up, nor will I drink from that old cup, in my heart I know it wont be much longer.
I wrote this for my daughter Raequel Schmidt , 10 years ago I gave her up to be adopted. Now, she is 18 yrs old and now will reside with me.
