Broken Heart

When life lets you down what do you do?
I have no answers and i haven't a clue.
To all of my departed babies I think of you all the time
for you to be taken from me was such an awful crime.
I don't understand what happened and did everything right
I would give anything to be holding you tight.
I'm so mad at God for what he has done
He took you from me before your life really begun.
I was teased to carry you most of the way
but you were born so early to all of our dismay.
Six months isn't long enough to give you a chance
but my body forced you to be here way in advance.
To have heard your first cry would have been music to my ears
but when there was silence I cried so many tears.
when your heart seems to shatter 
nothing else at all seems to matter.
They say time can help heal a broken heart
But mine will stay forever broken since we are apart.
