“If I could reach the heavens and touch your hand, mother I would be happy, If I could have at least gotten a chance to touch your face mother I would be so pleased. If I could have the gift to rewind the hands of time back from the day I was born and adopted mother I would have made sure you could have kept me. If I could stop the tears from falling from both of our eye's when you had to let go of me mother I would have placed myself outside of your wound just to hear your heartbeat once more.”
