A Mother's Worst Nightmare

There you were I held you in my hands You were my gift After nine months of care I wished for you hopes and dreams to come true You were my dream come true I guess my prayers weren’t listened to But someone took you away from me much too soon I said hello to you But I never said goodbye I still can’t believe you died My soul and heart forever broken Nothing to make it better or fix it I laid you to rest on many nights Knowing you would wake up Unfortunately,today I laid you to rest Asking god to love and protect you In heaven you wait for me To resume our relationship of mother and son
