Baby Girl of Mine

I wrote this to help someone special to me: I lost my daughter today. Sadness threatens to overwhelm me. Grief consumes my every thought. Pain fills my entire body. The words send a shock to my heart. My legs fail me as I fall to the floor Knowing it was to come, Realizing it is in God’s will, Nothing makes it easier to deal with. My heart crumbles under the weight I know all the pieces will never be found. A wound created that will never heal. A constant reminder of what is gone. Desire to become a forever family. Hope of taking away too much pain. Dreams of her eyes filling with child like joy. Plans of everyday growing up and learning All cause to mourn, all things I won't get to again see. I long for the comfort others might have, Joy her in the arms of someone who truely loves her, Peace in knowing she is being properly cared for. The knowledge that we will be together again. I lost my daughter today. There are no kisses to brighten my soul. No grave to visit and seek refuge at. The rest of the world will never notice, For the daughter I lost was never really mine. She is alive somewhere else Not by my choice but by theirs For it is not I that gets to kiss her good night I lost my daughter today at yet it is like the world does not care Really she was more mine than theirs... I lost my daughter today... I lost my daughter today... Don't worry baby girl we will be together .... someday..!
