Small Seed

One and only, great sweet dream Lullaby, my sun beam Moonlight’s music, sky’s first kiss Stars and magic, my one bliss You’re just a little seed; you’ll grow into your skin And be filled with love from both hearts within You’re just a tiny seed deep within the soil I only hope that you didn’t spoil I dreamt that you grew as tall as a tree I dreamt that you were always there with me But dreams don’t always become true And I have never got to be with you You’re just a seed; you’ll grow up very strong I only wish that I wasn’t wrong You’re just a small lovely seed In four months you started to bleed My one and only, hold me very tight I only wish that everything was right Lovely infant, dear young dream Golden daylight, my sun beam You are the reason that I will always cry Why did you ever have to say goodbye? Dying more than ever before Every time I miss you more A first child that wasn’t born Dead, now all I do I mourn Baby only four months old A treasure I never got to hold Big hole in my heart tonight Yelling “Why didn’t you hold me tight?”
