    My Baby you entered my life in very profound way and left me the same. When I made the decision to leave that day I prayed I would be able to continue being with you. Never did I imagine that I would never see you again. This has been so hard dealing with this alone I know that I couldn’t have done none of this in jail. I thank you for the years we spent together and for our beautiful Daughters mostly for you loving me no matter what thats why I loved you the same. We may not have had much however we had each other. We shared a beautiful day and night together you told me you loved me a million times and you telling me it was gonna be okay. I couldnt figure out just what you meant but now I feel like you were preparing me. I miss you so much and until I join you in Heaven no matter what happens in my life you will always be in my ❤I love you so much Tajaun Deon Boatner Rest In Paradise!
