Missing You

My daughter and younger grandson were here for a few days. This is the first time they've visited in a long time when I didn't have to be at work all day. We had a blast but it went by way to quickly. It's like losing a piece of my heart every time I watch them go back through the doors at the airport. So much of our lives go on apart a few days here and there really don't make up for it. The contrast between the life I have with the grandson that's here and the one that isn't only makes it harder. I can never recapture what has already passed and never make up for the time we won't have together. I will never stop trying and hope the attempt is enough to make certain a little part of his heart belongs only to me.
