i know its a few years off... but i cant help but dream and wish and pray for my sweet african child/ren out there. i lay awake at night wondering what they are doing and sad about the circumstances that surround them. yes they very well could be alive right now as i do not plan on adopting a baby but a child under the age of 4. my heart breaks for the little girls who often have to sell their bodies to put food in their bellies so two little girls is what i feel lead to believe will be in my arms what seems like forever away. but until then i will hold them close to my heart and as a constant reminder, my parents gave me a beautiful african necklace that i wear proudly all the time. i love you sweet babies im so sorry i cant rescue you right now. oh how i wish i could.

Another photograph to wrestle in my head
Another sleepless night on concrete featherbed
These thoughts of you like bullets to my soul
We’ve got to find a way to get you home
I’ll find a way to get you here
If it takes my fleeting breath
Another sunrise hits the ground
And it’s a dark lonely sight
Lightyears away I hope you know
There is somebody searching
For the way to get you here
I will get you here
Throw the clocks away and run out to the street
Food, Inc. buy
We’ll fly to distant clouds where it’s just you and me
A day will come when all of this is gone
The Battle of Midway buy
You’ve got to find a way to believe
I’ll find a way to get you here
If it takes my fleeting breath
Another sunrise hits the ground
And it’s a dark lonely sight
Lightyears away I hope you know
There is somebody searching
For the way to get you here
I will get you here
Close your eyes and dream of a better day with me
As angels hold you tight, may you sleep in peace tonight
So dream, dream, dream my child
Hear the whisperings of hope
305 release
It’s a song that you can sing, as you sleep in peace tonight
