A Lament for My Baby

I never got to hear you laugh you never saw me cry

didn't get a chance to say "Hello"you never said "Goodbye"

I didn't think that I could feel so sad, lost and forlorn.

I never knew God chose his Angels before some of them were born.

Your life was short yet special I shared it all exclusively

I felt you breathe, I felt you kick. You were alive inside of me.

Every baby is an Angel and every angel is divine

God needed one in heaven He came down and took mine

And although we are not together we're not really apart

for you'll always occupy a space deep within my heart.

Time has begun to ease my pain It's only some days now I cry.

When I wish I could have said "Hello"and heard you say "Goodbye"
