My First Love
I knew the day will come , yet never realised this soon
watching you so pale but yet so peaceful
I knew it in my mind but my heart can never accept it
letting you go, watching your pretty smile fade in your face
knowing I will never see you again, nor touch you
was the most heart wrecking moment
knowing you has been a blessing, a miracle from the man above
even though I never held you in my arms
your memories will for ever leave
I knew you were one of the Angels just did not realise you will be leaving for heaven soon
how I wish you opened your eyes, how it wish you smiled
I imagine how it would have been, to swatch you grow
I know I will have loved you
sitting here I wonder if you blame me, if you blame me
for not fighting hard enough, for letting you go,
if I could trade places I will take your place.
if I held on, if I kept fighting, maybe you will still be with me.
how I ever let go of what could have been
what I could have taught you
I wonder how your laugh would have sounded like
if you were to be daddy’s girl or mommies girl
not a single day goes by that I don’t think about you
I now you are amongst the Angels, you are seating on the bosom of the Jesus Christ
he is taking care of you, even though I miss you, I get comfort in knowing that you are watching over me.
Dedicated to all mothers who have lost their Angels.
God will never live nor forsake you.
