Saying Goodbye

Saying goodbye is the hardest thing to do It should make it easier with me not even knowing you I thought of names for you - both girl & boy Just the thought of you brought me joy Thinking about your life made me smile For you I would walk a thousand miles I can just picture your little webbed toes and feet Our life with you would be such a treat I bought small hands and feet to make cookies telling your dad I didn't get to use them and that makes me sad I wanted everyone to see my little blessing Now that I can't share you it's so depressing I know which day it was that you said goodbye It hurts so bad I just sit and cry I blame myself each and every day I can't imagine why God would take you away I know your life wasn't meant to be I didn't understand at first, but now I see Maybe we weren't ready your Dad and I I know one day we'll see you and never again have to say goodbye
