Still Born

I never seen your smile I never heard your cry, You where here only for a moment, and only God knows why. A piece of me you took with you on that tragic day, In pieces I am left because you could not stay. A thousand are in memories that we will never make, Until we meet again at that golden gate. Sweet little one how dearly you are loved, Your eyes open for the first time in heaven that's above. I'll never get to hold you or kiss your precious cheek, I'll never get the chance to sing you fast to sleep. All these things without a reason are stolen from me, Left unanswered are my prayers, and unheard is my plea. I long to smell you sweetness and gaze upon your face, To hold you near to my heart in a motherly embrace. I weep without comfort for the baby born so still, How silently you came and went you presents I long to feel. Your tiny kicks are all the memory that’s left behind, The thought of you at peace I now try to find. Sweet baby you are thought of daily and missed beyond all measure, You are my precious little one your memory forever treasured. Countless is the number for all these tears I've shed, So much left unfinished and all the words unsaid. My little daughter until we meet once again until I hold you near, I can't say good bye it’s much to hard to bear. One day I'll cover you with kisses and show you so much love, To quickly your wings were ready my perfect little dove. My Dear little one I loved you in this life and in death I love you still, In my heart you hold a place that no other could ever fill. I carried you every moment of your life and ill love you every second of mine, Together again will meet only god knows when it's time. Still born but still you were born in deed, Ill never forget you existed, and that’s a certainty. Dedicated to Baby Harper 02/23/17
