I Remember You...

My Baby,

 

I sit here now and remember you...

I didn't appreciate you when you were here
your memory is still so crisp and so clear
I remember your hair and imagine your eyes
but even more I feel that which ties

me to you after all these years
the moments we had so worth the tears
you were my hope and my shining star
you were more than what so many are

your touch was gentle and felt within
you gave me hope when I couldn't win
you were perfection prime my life anew
and now that you're gone I remember you

with you inside I was never alone
I faced the world to which I fell prone
You were my baby and my life meant so
much to me because you were in tow

now that you're gone, my daughter I know
that you were my angel in such sorrow
I was so young and you died before birth
I burn for you now knowing your worth

a priceless gift to me you came
but couldn't be born from all the shame
be free now my baby, and wait for me now
when in heaven we meet, you'll tell me how

your life with the Father is glory abounding
and the day that we meet will be astounding
your beauty I'll see and know right away
why He saw fit to take you that day

I love you Tiffany my daughter so sweet
you were born still but one day we will meet
I will take you into my arms and hold long
your angelic body and sing you a song

On this day you were born and died
twenty six years for you have I cried
no tears fall today as I remember you well
my heart for you though always will swell

I love you.  Remember me too,

MOM

I miscarred my first child - I had a piece on here but it was lost in the Great Delete - a hard time for you I know, and thirteen is so young too - that must have been so hard for you. This is a beautiful tribute for your little girl -

*hugs to you*
