You never said you were leaving You never said goodbye You were gone before I knew it, And only God knew why. A million times I needed you, A million times I cried. If love alone could have saved you, You never would have died. In life I loved you dearly In death I love you still In my heart you hold a place, That nobody could ever fill. It broke my heart to lose you, But you did not go alone For part of me went with you, The day God took you home Author Unknown |
What Makes a Mother ~Jennifer Wasik~ I thought of you and closed my eyes Ans prayed to God today I asked what makes a Mother And I know I heard him say A Mother has a baby This we know is true But God can you be a Mother When your baby’s not with you Yes, you can He replied With confidence in His voice I give many women babies When they leave is not their choice Some I send for a lifetime And others for a day And some I send to feel your womb But there’s no need to stay. I just don’t understand this God I want my baby here He took a breath and cleared his throat And then I saw a tear I wish I could show you What your child is doing today If you could see your child smile With other children and say We go to earth and learn our lessons Of love and life and fear My Mommy loved me oh so much I got to come straight here. I feel so lucky to have a Mom Who had so much love for me I learned my lessons very quickly My Mommy set me free I moss my Mommy oh so much But I visit her each day When she goes to sleep on her pillow’s where I lay I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek And whisper in her ear Mommy don’t be sad today I’m your baby and I’m here So you see my dear sweet one Your children are ok Your babies are here in My home And this is where they’ll stay They’ll wait for you with Me Until your lesson is through And on the day that you come home They’ll be at the gates for you So now you see what makes a Mother It’s the feeling in your heart It’s the love you had so much of Right from the very start. |
If Tears Could Build A Stairway ~Author Unknown~ If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane I could walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken no time to say good-bye you were gone before I knew it and only God knows why. My heart’s still active in sadness and secret tears still flow what it meant to lose you no one can ever know. But now I know you want us to mourn for you no more to remember all the happy times life still has much in store. Since you’ll never be forgotten I pledge to you today a hallowed place within my heart is where you’ll always stay. |
Just Say “I’m Sorry” ~by Gail Fasolo~ In memory of Christina, stillborn 2/5/1991 You don’t know how I feel Please don’t tell me that you do. There’s just one way to know–have you lost a child too? “You’ll have another child!”–must I hear this each day? Can I get another mother, too, if mine should pass away? Don’t say it was “God’s will”-- That’s not the God I know. Would God on purpose break my heart, Then watch as my tears flow? “Aren’t you better yet?” Is that what I heard you say? NO! A part of my heart aches– I’ll always feel some pain. You think that silence is kind, But it hurts me even more. I want to talk about my child Who has gone through death’s door. Don’t say these things to me, Although you do mean well. They do not take the pain away; I must go through this hell. I will be better slow but sure– And it helps to have you near. But a simple “I’m sorry you lost your child” Is all I need to hear. |
