A poem dedicated to mothers who have endured the pain of losing a child; whether that be a miscarriage or during birth. This poem is special to me and my family. I thank God for giving me the words to write it.
Today I left you, but not alone
I saw Him hold your hand
He wiped each tear from your eyes
Please Mom understand:
He said that I was made
So perfect in your womb He knew my name and my days
He just asked me to come Home soon
The hurt you felt in your heart
He said He will take away... And replace it with a resounding joy
Enough to fill your days
He heard your cry
though you couldn't hear mine He mourned with you and stayed
He promises me and you…
will see each other again one day
The reason why I had to leave
He knew it all along He needed me ABOVE you
Instead of in your arms
He asks you not to forget of me
But remember me each time you pray Because that's when we are closest
When you look up...I see your face
These wings are awfully big
But perfect to protect all of you I hold you all so tight at night
And follow your steps too
When you start to miss me
Use the windows to my soulStare into daddy's eyes
And that's when you will know
Because when you smile back at him
He'll see me smiling too That's when you'll feel the peace and strength
Knowing I'm so close to you
With peace I leave you and dad
My sisters and my brother too
I may not have seen my room
But you gave me life in your womb
You sacrificed your body
To bring forth an eternal life
More special than you know
Forever...I will survive!
From here I see it's clear as day
As He rocks me in His Arms
The Lord gave His only begotten son
And in return you gave Him yours
When tears fall and years go by
Listen to the beating of your heart
Because He made me through you
That will never keep us apart
Love your Angel Baby
Our time on Earth was short
But that is only a temporary place
I'm
Home
Forever
Now.
