ππ FIVE YEARS AGO TODAY, MY WORLD CHANGED FOREVERβ¦ ππ
Five years ago today, my beautiful son, my precious baby boy, my hero Ommy Enrique Molina II, ADAR U.S. Navy, was left to die inside a barracks at the Naval base in Pensacola, Florida. πΊπΈπ
And five years later, I still ask myself the same questionβ¦
βWhat if I had been there?β ππ
I would give anything to have been beside my little boy when he needed his mama the most. I would have held him, protected him, fought for him, and told him over and over again how much I loved him. But I wasnβt thereβ¦ and that is a pain I will carry for the rest of my life. π
No mother should ever have to wonder if her child was alone, scared, hurting, or calling for her while she was miles away. No mother should ever have to live with questions that will never stop haunting her heart.
My Ommy, I am so sorry, my baby. ππ
If I could have traded places with you, I would have without a second thought.
You were supposed to come home. I was supposed to hug you, hear your voice, watch you chase your dreams, and watch the beautiful life you deserved unfold before you.
Instead, I had to say goodbye to my son.
I never got to say goodbye. ππ
Today, this song is dedicated to you, my beautiful boy in Heaven. ππΌπ Every note carries my love, my tears, my memories, and the ache in my heart that will never go away.
Five years have passed, but I have not moved on. I have only learned how to carry a pain that I never asked for.
You are not just a memory.
You are my son.
You are my baby.
You are my hero.
My Tikita
You are forever 22. πΊπΈπ
I will love you until my very last breath, and I will continue to speak your name, honor your life, and carry you with me until the day God allows me to hold you again.
Mama loves you, Lil Ommy. Always. Forever. Beyond Heaven and back. πͺ½πππΌπ
August 29, 2021 β the day my heart was broken forever. π
