I kissed your forehead for the very last time.
You lay there peacefully, while my whole world was falling apart.
I tried to be strong, because I knew that once I walked away, I would never get to hold you again.
I whispered, "I love you."
And somehow, I hoped you could still hear me.
But the only thing that answered was silence.
I stood there, memorizing your face... knowing I would never see you the same way again
That wasn't just a goodbye.
It was the last time I would ever kiss my son who I loved so deeply.
And no matter how many years pass I know I will always remember that last kiss.
