Lost Angel

My lost little angel That never had a chance, To hop, skip, or jump, And make my life a mess. My lost little angel, I’ll never get to hold, She was gone in a flash Before anyone could know. With hair so curly and black, And skin so soft and smooth, My heart will always ache, For my little angel that never could. All alone in my house With nowhere to run, The heartache and pain Overwhelm me again. With heart-wrenching sobs And great cries of “Why?” I mourn the great loss Of my angel that died. Surrounded by my grief And the home she’ll never have, I can’t help but wonder Why God changed his mind. My lost little angel, Still, so precious to me, My little Elaina Diane, You’ll forever be.
