Dear Mom...Love, Natalee Poem by The Poet Darkling

Dear Mom...Love, Natalee



Dear Mom, I don't know if you'll get this
But I'm sending it anyway
It's been so long since I've seen your face
And there's a lot I have to say

The first thing is that I miss you all
I am sorry and I feel bad
I know what happened isn't my fault
But I hate seeing you so sad

I know how very much you love me
Because it shows with every tear
What I really want you to know is
Though you can't see me, I am here

I am in every ray of sunshine
That lights up your beautiful face
I'm in the wind that kisses your cheek
And the memories that you embrace

You see I've never really left you
I have been with you since the start
I'm in each and every one of you
Because you've kept me in your heart

My final wish is that you're happy
So please, cry no more tears for me
I am in heaven waiting for you
With love, your daughter Natalee

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
My personal thoughts on what Natalee Holloway might say if she could write a letter to her mom. Joran Van Der Sloot is suspected of having killed her while she was on her senior trip in Aruba on May 30,2005. Her body has never been found and she was declared legally dead by an Alabama court earlier this year. Van Der Sloot confessed, pleaded guilty and was convicted of Peruvian Stephany Flores' murder this year as well. He killed Stephany exactly five years to day after Natalee disappeared.
