A Dark Alley and a Bad Idea

“What are you doing?”
“Writing them a letter, so they’ll know that we loved them but we were just too young to raise them.” I could feel my own tears forming but I had to blink them away.
I had to be strong for Myla, for the twins, for myself.
“I know it’s a closed adoption but maybe when they’re old enough their parents will give it to them.”
Myla touched my cheek as our eyes locked, and for the first time in months I meant my words, “I love you.”
She just smiled and I knew for her that love had been gone for a while. It didn’t matter anyway we never had it at all.
I put the letter in an envelope and sealed it hoping that one day they would be able to read it.
I looked at them, they were sleeping. Unaware of everything that was going on around them.
“I love you both with all my heart. I wish things would have been different. I wish I didn’t have to say goodbye. You two are my entire heart and I will miss you two every single day.”
Now there was no way of stopping the tears.
