Stories of Lost Children
One Year Has Passed
by Emilee Rogers, Nicholasville, KY, U.S.A.
Well it is the second week of Jan. And all of her anniversaries have passed. Her birthday was December 19, 2004, she would have been a year old and the January 2, 2005 came and it has been a year since she died. Her birthday was the hardest, I kept think about how she would have been a year old. How much she would have enjoyed her Christmas and how she should have been running around and causing me problems as I wrapped presents. But instead she wasn't there. There was nothing. My little McKenlee should be here and she isn't. And it still hurts daily. I think about her constantly. I only wish she was here. But then I wouldn't be having her little sister, Ashlyn, in three months so it is bittersweet. I miss you my McKenlee. I love you and wish you were here. I had wrote some poems for you and I have decided to type on here, for everyone else to read. Supposed
You came into my life
I loved you before I knew you
You were taken far too soon
I never got to take you out,
or rock you at home.
You were supposed to be by my side,
In my arms, not in heaven.
I was supposed to go first,
you were to bury me.
Flowers were supposed to be for your arrival not for your death.
An announcement was supposed to welcome you Not an obituary to say goodbye.
I don't know how I am supposed to say goodbye, How I am supposed to let you go?
