I love you though you're far from me
An angel you were meant to be
Taken by death at life's first breath
A hole inside my heart you left
 
When I look around me now
I wonder what you'd be like, and how
You would perceive this place called home
Or do you wander, lost, alone
 
I cry my tears for the loss of you
As everyone expects me to
But even after all these years
I can never face my fears
 
My fear that somehow it was my fault
Your life came to a sudden halt

*Dedicated to my Daughter who died at birth on this day in 1982 ~ R.I.P. My Beautiful Angel*
