Not Forgotten

You never took a single breath You're feet never touched the ground I never got to hear your voice Or utter a single sound And yet my heart is filled with love Amidst the hurt and pain Because I choose to hear your voice In the sound of the falling rain You were not meant to be here I will never understand why I know that you'll be looking down From your home up in the sky Though my arms barely held you I felt the softness of your skin And now I choose to believe You hid a hug within the wind The world just keeps on spinning The world you never got to see Though your time was swift and brief Your impact was left on me Now every time I go outside And feel a gentle gust I will know deep in my heart That you are here with us.
