To The Child in My Heart
Oh precious, tiny, sweet little one
You will always be to me
So perfect, pure, and innocent
Just as you were meant to be.
We dreamed of you and of your life
And all that it would be
We waited and longed for you to come
And join our family.
We never had a chance to play,
To laugh, to rock, to wiggle.
We longed to hold you, touch you now
And listen to you giggle.
I’ll always be your mother.
He’ll always be your dad
You will always be our child,
The child that we had.
But now you’re gone…
But yet you’re here.
We sense you everywhere
You are our sorrow and our joy.
There’s love in every tear.
Just know our love goes deep and strong
We’ll forget you never ~
The child we had, but never had.
And yet we’ll have forever.
~C.P.

RIP Rachel. We love you.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you and your family today, Katie.
What a beautiful tribute. I shared the poem with a friend that is going through the same thing.
