Always Remembered & Forever Loved

Always Remembered and Forever Loved

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you.
You're in my head and in my heart;
You're in everything I do.

I never will forget the day the doctor told me the news,
"You lost your baby; I'm sorry,
There's nothing we can do."

How could it be possible you were no longer there?
I was supposed to be your Mommy,
Didn't anybody care?

I remember feeling numb
And sad beyond belief.
My once happy emotions had now turned to grief.

I questioned God. I was so mad.
I cried every single day.
Why did He take you from me?
How could He take you away?

With time and love and healing,
God's amazing grace helped me to see...
He didn't take you from me,
It was Him who set you free.

He knew that you were special
And needed up above.
A precious little angel,
Released from Earth with so much love.

It hurts that I can't hold you
Or do things that mommies do.
It hurts that others don't understand
The love I have for you.

The spare bedroom is empty,
Where all your things should be.
And in their place are hopes and dreams
That will never be.

I never got to see you
Or hold you in my arms,
But I carried you in my womb
And I hold you in my heart.

Though my arms are empty,
My heart is full of love.
You will always be remembered
And forever loved.
