This is my relationship with my daughter. In the midst of all that's happened over these past few days, I hold on very tight to the laughter and smiles. I may never get to see them again. They may be our last ones together. I cherish them with my heart. I see their beauty amongst all of the barriers of pain. I still see the little bit of glimmer. I'm afraid that it's going to go out like a flame on a candle. And all I will be left with are the puddles of wax.
