The last time I saw you...

The last time I saw you did I say a proper goodbye?
Did we kiss and promise to meet again when you were older, or did I let you go without a second glance?
Did I wish you happiness and love?

No.

The last time I saw you both, I read you a story and kissed you goodnight.
I whispered that I would see you in dreams, have a fairy tea party or sail with you on my pirate ship. I gave you many kisses, but somehow they were not enough.

I shut your door, leaving you somewhere between awake and sleep not knowing that I would not see you again...

I wish I had realized that it was my last chance to say goodbye, my last chance to tell you I loved you and wish you happiness for all the days ahead.
