An Angel Never Dies
Don't let them say I wasn't born
That something stopped my heart
I felt each tender squeeze you gave,
I've loved you from the start
Although my body you can't hold,
It doesn't mean i'm gone,
This world was worthy, not of me,
God chose that I move on.
I know the pain that drowns your soul,
What you are forced to fear
You have my word, I'll fill your arms,
Someday we will embrace.
You'll hear that it was "meant to be
God doesn't make mistakes"
But that won't soften your worst blow,
Or make your heart not ache.
I'm watching over all you do,
Another child you'll bear,
Believe me when I say to you,
That I am always there.
There will come a time, I promise you,
When you will hold my hand
Stroke my face and kiss my lips,
And then you'll understand.
Although I've never breathed your air,
Or gazed into your eyes
That doesn't mean I never "was"
An angel never dies.
You're My Angel
A bleeding heart, an aching head
The voices ringing in my head
The questioning, but no reason why
My little baby just had to die.
A soul that's free or so some say
My own soul bound forever and a day.
Forever aching to have you near
But wishing will not bring you here.
My eyes cry tears that will not end
The road I travel came to a bend
There was no option.... no fork in the road
So I plow ahead and carry my load
The load in my heart and the ache missing you
My little child so tiny and new
I'll never forget the day we first met
The hurt and love mingled together....one set
And so on this day, my dear little child
While I wish for you and dream your smile
Know that you're missed so dearly, so true
And no matter how many years pass, I'll always love you.
Just Those Few Weeks
For those few weeks- I had you to myself
And that seems too short a time to be changed so profoundly.
In those few weeks- I came to know you...and to love you.
You came to trust me with your life.
Oh, what a life I had planned for you!
Just those few weeks- When I lost you,
I lost a lifetime of hopes,plans,dreams,and aspirstions
A slice of my future simply vanshied overnight.
Just those few weeks- It wasn't enough time to convince
Others how special and important you were.
How oddly, a truely unique person has recently died and no one is mourning the passing.
Just those few weeks- and no "normal" person would
Cry all night over a tiny unfinished baby.
Or get depressed and withdraw day after endless day
No one would, so why am I?
You were just those few weeks my little one
You darted in and out of my life too quickly.
But it seems that's all the time you needed to make my life
So much richer and give me a small glimpse of eternity.
God gives us many things in life.
But there is nothing better than the memory of something so special
And wonderful as sunflowers that we sent from heaven above.
Though they maybe here for only alittle while,
They give us much peace and they show the beauty
That life has to offer us.
To me, my little angel is a sunflower.
Free, beautiful and sent from God above.
I'll Hold You In Heaven
From the very beginning I loved you,
As I made plans to hold you and rock you;
You were tiny and helpless as you lay in my womb,
But something went wrong and soon you were gone;
My young heart was broken, my tears fell like rain,
I'd never known such heartache and pain.
I wonder who you look like, me or your dad,
Do you have my smile and his eyes?
Would you have been big and tall or tiny and small?
We have dreams for you that reached the skies.
It was not that long ago and I still miss you so,
Thanks to Jesus, I'll see you in heaven.
I'll hold you in heaven someday,
When my trials on earth pass away,
The angels have rocked you, the father watches over you,
I know you're waiting for me;
I never could hold you or tell you " Goodbye",
But I'll hold you in heaven someday.
