My little girl
With hair of gold
And eyes as green as grass
My little boy
With hair of sand
Hazel eyes full of laughs
Her tempers hot
Her emotions strong
An inner rage of fire
His tempers cool
His emotions calm
His dreams are his desires
She is quick to anger
Slow to hurt
But still she's a little girl
He's slow to anger
Quick to hurt
In his sensitive little world
But still I love them
For they are my heart
The foundation for which I live
My two little angels
Disguised as devils
But for them my life I'd give
They may not be here
So I hope they see
Their mother will never let go
She loves her children
Where ever they are
She hopes they really do know
Time will pass
Then we'll be whole
Ending the cycle of pain
Till that day comes
I'll miss you both
Until we're together again
Author notes
This is dedicated to my two children who live with their father. Also I loved your poem Permanent Nightmare. Many people will be able to relate to this

this is really sad and i had tears in my eyes. a wonderful poem and great dedication. A really great piece. Loved it.
Good luck and thanks for entering -
love you
we missed you too mum but we both knew that you loved us no matter what dad said about you. -
This is wonderfully written and so sad. I have two boys, as different as night and day. I couldn't be without them. I love how you have described them. I am sure they know you love them. Great poem. I loved it.

The love for a child from a parent is a great bond and no matter how crappy the kids act or treat you, you just can't help but love them, need them and miss them. I like the way you describe them... Are they twins? Just you describe their temperment in the same way, so it seems like it. Glad you have your children in your heart wherever you go.

This was deeply moving for me..I cannot do this poem justice in expressing my sentiments, but I'll try. I understand this emotion of losing my children from a slightly different angle. I have two, a girl and a boy, that I relinquished for adoption,(open adoption, and yes I know the parents,)around the time of their birth. I love them, I miss them, and yes, I am allowed to visit, when time and permission permits. Unfortunately, they are so far away, that it is very difficult to do so. My daughter is 13, my son is 11. I feel innately, that I know them in ways, no one, perhaps does. So far, through my mom, and other family members, they can only confirm, that what I knew of them, was correct. Thank you for sharing and expressing this poem. I hope you may be reunited with your children soon.

lovely
The way you describe your children really reminds me of my brother and I, almost word for word. After reading this, I love your children too. It reminds me of a poem you'd find at the very end of a book of children's verse or something you'd recite to them before bedtime. It's lovely.

Sentiments well expressed in these lines - easy to read and understand. We feel the pain and the longing for the time you can meet again.

this was so sad . . . so full of longing and beauty. The way you switch from your daughter to your son and then combine them as one . . . as not two people . . . but your children. beautiful.
-
wonderful
ohh... so sad... and beautiful at the same time... that's the way to do it... i love this... i want a son and daughter too... so this is great to me. -
This is really such a beautiful poem. I wish you the best. Much love.
