Mommy's little one
NONE OF THESE POEMS ARE PERFECT ENOUGH,
FOR A LITTLE BABY WHO'S MOMMY MISSES SO MUCH.
THE WORDS JUST DON'T SEEM TO BE RIGHT
THEY DON'T EASE MY PAIN OR MAKE MY HEAVY BURDEN LIGHT.
THEY AREN'T RIGHT ON PAPER OR IN MY HEAD,
BECAUSE MOMMY CAN'T DEAL WITH THE FACT HER LITTLE ONE'S DEAD
YOU SEE PRECIOUS ONE, MOMMY'S REALLY SAD AND UPSET
MY LITTLE ONE'S GONE AND I CAN'T MOVE ON YET.
MY BABY HAD TOES, EYES, FEET AND EARS
EVERY TIME I REMEMBER I SHED TEAR AFTER TEAR.
THE DOCTORS LISTENED AND LOOKED,
AND SAID "WE'VE STARED HARD AT
HIS HEART AND IT JUST WON'T BEAT"
SEE THE DOCTORS COULDN'T BE RIGHT,
MY BABY'S NOT GONE HE'S
JUST FALLEN ASLEEP.
WE SAT AND WE LOOKED, BUT YOU NEVER WOKE UP TO TELL MOMMY HELLO
TO SAY MOMMY I'M HERE, PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP HOPE, DON'T LET
ME GO.
NO MOVEMENT OR SOUND TO SAY MOM I'M OKAY
SO THEY TOOK YOU FROM ME, THEY TOOK YOU AWAY.
NIGHT AFTER NIGHT, AND DAY AFTER DAY, MOMMY CAN'T GO TO SLEEP,
MOMMY CAN'T SAY GOODBYE, SHE DOESN'T BELIEVE,
THAT MOMMY'S LITTLE BABY'S IN HEAVEN AND IT'S NOW TIME TO
GRIEVE,
FOR THE LOSS OF HER BABY SHE NEVER COULD SEE.
DON'T THINK MOMMY DOES NOT LOVE YOU OR MISS YOU SO BAD,
MOMMY STILL LOVES YOU, MOMMY'S SO VERY VERY SAD.
SEE YOU'LL ALWAYS BE MY LITTLE BABY THAT I CARRIED INSIDE,
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, YOU'RE MY JOY AND MY PRIDE.
BABY, MOMMY IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SHE LOVES YOU,
BUT THERE ARE
NO WORDS TO SAY,
HOW MUCH YOUR MOMMY WILL MISS YOU DAY AFTER DAY.
THESE WORDS STILL JUST AREN'T NEARLY PERFECT ENOUGH,
FOR THE
LITTLE BABY WHO'S MOMMY MISSES SO MUCH.
A note to my little one:
"Be sweet little one, sleep tight and goodnight,
if you can't go to bed ask God to leave on a small light.
Mommy will see you soon, you don't have to be scared,
if you need me little one, mommy's heart is with you, i'm
always right there."
