Loss
loss is a sad word, from experience i speak
I come from a past that was very bleak.
I can't give my husband the baby he wants
In my dreams, my loss it haunts.
I feel I let every one down
because a true grandchild from us will never be found.
Why did my body kick you out before your time
my body made you leave before you was in your prime.
when I held you in my arms you had already gone
I cried that night till the early dawn.
In heaven you are now, with God by your side
When I said I forgave you Lord, I'm sorry I lied.
I still don't understand why you took my babies from me
my heart is heavy with hurt sometimes its hard to see.
I have no baby to rock to sleep at night
and I have no babies to love and to hold tight.
A very good mother I would really be
Please give me a chance for you to see.
